The Pritchard-Jones Institute
John Pritchard Jones was a local lad made good. Having received only an elementary education he gravitated to London and eventually became the co-founder of the Regent Street store of Dickens & Jones. Much of the money he made came back to North Wales - both to his native village and to the University College of North Wales at Bangor. The institute and six alms houses were constructed between 1902 and 1905. John's brother, R.P.Jones had an outfitters store on the square at Newborough. At sale times he would fetch suites and dresses from his brother's Regent Street store to sell in Newborough, which became a mecca for the fashionistas of North Wales.

"Heroes lost on Land and Sea"
The number of village lads lost in the First World War was 26. A further 12, a much higher proportion than in most communities, were lost in the Second World War. This reflects the number of Niwbrwch men who were seafarers.

Eglwys Bach, Malltraeth Street
Eglwys Bach, or St Thomas Mission Church to give it its official name, was built in the late 19thC in an attempt to evangelize the poor of the community. Being less than half a mile from the parish church, it has long been redundant and is now being renovated for use as a community centre.
