'''Wales (West and North) Television''', known on screen as '''{{lang|cy|Teledu Cymru|italic=no}}''' ("TV Wales" in Welsh) and often abbreviated to '''WWN''', was the [[Wales|Welsh]] "[[ITV (TV network)|Independent Television]]" (commercial television) contractor awarded the franchise area serving North and West Wales, from 1962 (franchise awarded 6 June 1961). It began transmitting on 14 September 1962, and ceased on 26 January 1964 through financial failure; the franchise area was soon combined with the South Wales and West of England area, operated by [[Television Wales and the West|TWW]].<ref name=tvroom>{{cite web|title=TWW/Teledu Cymru|url=https://thetvroom.com/ark/itv/tww-1958-01-id-010.html|publisher=TV Room|accessdate=21 August 2011}} Contains information and images of WWN's idents.</ref><ref name=transdiffusion>{{cite web|last=Graham|first=Russ|title=Teledu Cymru|url=http://www.transdiffusion.org/emc/ident/album/wwn.php|work=Electro Musicians Ident|publisher=Transdiffusion Broadcasting System|accessdate=21 August 2011}} Contains a detailed account of WWN's life and some images of WWN's idents.</ref> TWW retained the Teledu Cymru name in the former WWN franchise area, as did successor [[ITV Wales & West|Harlech]] during their [[Independent Television Service for Wales and the West|emergency transitional franchise]], only retiring the name when they were able to officially take over.
