About Dic Evans Memorial

Finding this memorial requires a bit of detective work - it's tucked away near Tyn-y-Gongl without the fanfare of more famous Anglesey monuments. The simple stone commemorates Dic Evans, a local figure whose story connects to the area's maritime heritage, though details are frustratingly sparse on the ground.

History enthusiasts will appreciate the quiet dignity of the site, even if they're left wanting more context about Evans himself. The memorial sits in peaceful surroundings that feel properly Welsh - rolling fields and that particular Anglesey light that makes everything look slightly ethereal.

Expect a brief visit rather than a lengthy exploration. This isn't a destination that will occupy a full afternoon, but it's worth seeking out if you're staying at one of the nearby caravan parks like Cae Mawr or Bodafon. The location near Lligwy Bay means you can easily combine it with coastal walks or beach time.

Families might find it lacks the interactive appeal of bigger attractions, though older children with an interest in local history could find value in the search itself. The memorial works best as part of a broader exploration of this corner of Anglesey rather than a standalone visit. It's free to visit whenever you fancy making the trip from your base camp.
