Located on the A5 opposite Llanfairpwll Station, Ty Coch was commissioned by Sir John Morris-Jones (1864-1929), Professor of Welsh at Bangor University. He played a leading part in the evolution of modern Welsh by standardising its orthography. He was also a poet and a translator of poetry into Welsh, particularly the works of Heinrich Heine and Omar Khayyam. http://yba.llgc.org.uk/en/s-MORR-JOH-1864.html http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/cy/thumb/7/78/Morris-Jones.jpg/200px-Morris-Jones.jpg
