Pillgwenlly , usually known as Pill, is a community and coterminous electoral district in the city of Newport, South Wales.
The name is an elision of "Pîl Gwynllyw" . 'Pîl' is a localised topographical element indicating a tidal inlet from the sea, suitable as a harbour. In local tradition, it is said that this name derives from the early part of Gwynllyw's life when he was an active pirate. The tradition states that Gwynllyw maintained his ships at Pillgwenlly. Gwynllyw's reputation amongst sailors saw him adopted as the patron saint of choice for Welsh pirates and smugglers including Sir Henry Morgan.
