Used cars for sale in Bangor, Gwynedd

Bangor

Among the smallest cities in Britain, Bangor is located in the county of Gwynedd, Wales. A prominent area in its own right, the population is around 22,000, not including the thousands of students that attend the university.

Situated on the coast, the island of Anglesey is just a short journey across the Menai Strait, and Bangor Mountain is probably the most interesting topographic feature of the area. A superb base from which to visit the Snowdonia national park, the variable terrain means it’s certainly exciting for drivers.

Established with the building of the Bangor Cathedral in the 6th century, the area quickly became a religious centre, but later served as an important port. More recently, Bangor has become an established cultural centre, and is also known as a cathedral city for obvious reasons. From classical orchestras to modern day radio, Bangor has even been the host of a large popular music festival featuring some of the biggest international acts in 2010.

Sport has always been an important part of life in this area, and the successful Bangor City F.C football club is always able to draw a big crowd. The rugby club is also significant and has served as a feeder team for larger professional outfits.

Possibly the most well known feature is the university, which was founded in 1884 and draws students from all over the UK and further afield. Occupying quite a lot of the city, some of the buildings are very impressive, and actually the diverse range of students serves to liven things up a bit; it’s never boring, that’s for sure.
