Y Lawnt - Lombard St.
Image: © Hefin Richards Taken: 3 Feb 2007
The Lawnt is the historical centre of Dolgellau. We can imagine the first settlement grew up around the slightly raised ground in the area of the Church. The building with arched windows on the right is the old police station. The former police station dates from the mid 19th century. Its delicate Gothic windows present a very different image of the law from that of the modern police headquarters across the river.
