Clos y Mametz, Porthcawl
Houses in Bellway's Mallards Reach development viewed from Newtown Nottage Road in late March 2016. As the letter Z is not part of the Welsh alphabet, I guessed that perhaps Mametz is a town twinned with Porthcawl, but I was wrong.
The most likely reason for the name is as a memorial to the Battle of Mametz Wood, fought from July 7th to July 12th 1916 during the First Battle of the Somme in France during the First World War. Most of the British forces involved were Welsh from the 38th (Welsh) Division. It was a particularly fierce and bloody battle, which resulted in nearly 4,000 British casualties.
