Text from the free encyclopedia WIKIPEDIA may appear below to give a little background information:
*************
Barry Island (Welsh: Ynys y Barri) is a district, peninsula and seaside resort, forming part of the town of Barry in the Vale of Glamorgan, south Wales. It is named after the 6th century Saint Baruc. Barry's stretch of coast, on the Bristol Channel, has the world's second highest tidal range, of 15 metres (49 ft).[1] second only to Bay of Fundy in Eastern Canada.[2]
The peninsula was an island until the 1880s when it was linked to the mainland as the town of Barry expanded. This was partly due to the opening of Barry Dock by the Barry Railway Company. Established by David Davies, the docks now link up the gap which used to form Barry Island.
Although the Barry Island used to be home to a Butlins Holiday Camp, it is now known more for its beach and Barry Island Pleasure Park.
The area's railway station serves as one of the termini on the Vale of Glamorgan Line and connects to Cardiff, about 9 miles (14 km) north north east of Barry, in 33 minutes.
