Barry is a town in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales. Located just a few miles from Cardiff, the capital of Wales, Barry lies on the south coast and is a popular seaside resort, with attractions including a beach, and the Barry Island Pleasure Park.
Originally Barry was a small village neighbouring the larger villages of Cadoxton and Barry Island. Today, Barry has swallowed both of these villages and the area is know as Barry with small areas or parishes known as Cadoxton and Barry Island.
