Background
History
The Rev. Edmund Meyricke founded a free grammar school at Bala, at Ty-Tan Domen, in 1713/14 by instructions in his will. A new building was constructed in 1851 (Neuadd y Cyfnod) and modelled very much on Jesus College, its financial and academic patron. The grammar school was replaced by the new Ysgol Y Berwyn in 1964; The new school, Ysgol Godre'r Berwyn, opened in September 2019 and had its official opening ceremony on 8 November.
