Ychydig iawn o bobl leol, heb son am ymwelwyr, sy'n ymwybodol o'r treftadaeth yma, ac mae gwir angen gwneud defnydd o'n adnoddau naturiol er mwyn denu pobl leol ac ymwelwyr i mewn i'n pentrefi, i ddefnyddio llwybrau lleol ac i ymddiddori yn ein hanes.

Ymateb Menter Môn i hyn oeddd cydweithio hefo Cyngor Tref Porthaethwy ac Ymddiriedolaeth Archaelegol Gwynedd i greu cynllyn dehongli i dref Porthaethwy.

Mae tri lleoliad i'r gwaith ym Mhorthaethwy. Adferwyd maes parcio Coed Cyrnol a gerddi Aberfan ger Pont Telford. Gosodwyd byrddau gwybodaeth yn adrodd hanes y bont a chyrrion morwrol y dref. Cysylltir y nodweddion hanesyddol gyda llwybrau cerdded hynafol a phleserus. Eisioes gwelwyd cynnydd sylweddol yn y nifero bobl sy'n cerdded Coed Cyrnol, y Belgian Prom a'r hen bont ei hun.

Few local people, let alone visitors, are aware of this heritage, and there is an urgent need to make use of the natural resources around us in order to attract local people and visitors into our villages, to use local footpaths and to take an intrest in our history.Menter Môn's response to this was to cooperate with the Menai Bridge Town Council and theGwynedd Archaeological Trust to create an Interpretation project for the town of Menai Bridge.

The work in Menai Bridge was done in three locations. Improvments to the car park at Coed Cyrnol and the Aberfan Garden were followed by the installation of information boards to direct visitors along the footpaths which link each point of intrest. This enhancement project will contribute positively to the economic development of Menai Bridge.
