Snowdon's English name dropped in favour of Welsh
Last year, Gwynedd councillor John Pughe Roberts put forward a motion asking the park to stop using the English names Snowdon and Snowdonia, saying many people were "complaining that people are changing house names, rock names, renaming the mountains".
The park was already using Welsh names on the English versions of publications and digital communications, a process it will continue as materials were updated. "This will enable all to familiarise themselves with the new policy and to continue to be able to access the information they need," park authorities said."This is very encouraging and gives us confidence that this change in the authority's approach will be accepted for the benefit of the Welsh language and as a mark of respect to our cultural heritage," she said.
