Valley is a village in Anglesey, North Wales.
Its Welsh name is either Dyffryn or Y Fali. Recent research, prompted by local opposition to the naming as Y Fali, revealed that Valley may be a corruption of the Irish Bally (settlement), or Baile as it is spelled in Irish. There does not appear to be a known, truly Welsh language placename for the village, hence there has been a reverting to Valley of late. There is no actual valley as the area is very flat.
RAF Valley is a nearby Royal Air Force station concerned with the training of fast jet pilots.
Valley railway station is on the North Wales Coast Line.
