A prize to anyone who can spot the mistake (or possibly simply an innovative stylistic decision) here? Tsk. Google Maps data quality is pretty poor, but this.... Tsk.

The way they've named Wales in something that looks more Gaelic than Welsh?

Could be Irish, could be Scots...

That's what I thought too, but it's not correct Scots Gaelic because words beginning with 'b' take the definite article 'am' not 'an', and 'Bhreatain' is a word I haven't come across. I also haven't heard of Wales being referred to as 'Little Britain', but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen. Anyway, it doesn't look like Welsh, does it?

Google suggests it's Irish.
