Tonna (Welsh: Tonnau) is the name of a village and community (or civil parish) in Neath Port Talbot, Wales, located to the northeast of Neath town, of which it is effectively a suburb. Once mainly agricultural fields, the name derives from the archaic Welsh tonnau, meaning "grassland" and not, as is sometimes assumed, the modern Welsh for "waves". Some areas of pasture remain. The population, according to the UK census of 2011, was 2,499. [edit] Research Tips
