Llyn Llywenan, Protected lake in Anglesey, Wales
Llyn Llywenan extends over one kilometer in length and spans 0.4 kilometers in width, making it the largest natural lake on Anglesey.
The presence of two neolithic burial mounds near the southern edge of the lake indicates human settlement in this area dating back thousands of years.
The Chapel of Ainon, established in 1839 at the lake's end, served as a location for traditional outdoor baptism ceremonies in Welsh religious practices.
The lake provides opportunities for fishing activities, with multiple species of fish inhabiting its waters, while birdwatchers can observe various waterfowl species.
The lake contains rare aquatic plant species, including the needle spike rush and the eight-stamened spring quillwort, contributing to its scientific importance.
