Mary Jones Pilgrim Centre, commonly known as Mary Jones World (Welsh: Byd Mary Jones), is a small heritage centre located in Llanycil near Bala, Gwynedd, Wales. Situated on the north shore of Llyn Tegid (Bala Lake), it provides information on Mary Jones, a fifteen-year-old girl from Llanfihangel-y-Pennant. After she had saved her money for six years, in 1800 Jones walked 26 miles to buy a copy of a Welsh-language Bible, which she thought would be available in Bala, only to find that they were sold out. The Reverend Thomas Charles was reputed to have given her his own spare copy. (Other versions of the story have Mary waiting for two days for Bibles to arrive, and Charles giving her three copies to take back to her village.) More information...
