Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found.Mawddwy is a community in the county of Gwynedd, Wales, and is 88.3 miles (142.2 km) from Cardiff and 172.8 miles (278.0 km) from London.[1][2] In 2011 the population of Mawddwy was 603 with 59.5% of them able to speak Welsh.[3]

The village of Dinas Mawddwy is within the community of Mawddwy.

Mawddwy was also a medieval commote in the cantref of Cynan of the Kingdom of Powys. Cynan also contained the commote of Cyfeiliog.[4] Other sources refer to Cyfeiliog as a cantref in its own right, possibly as a result of Cynan being renamed for the largest commote within it.[5][6]
