Our article says: "[M]onoglot Welsh speakers are now virtually
non-existent, except among mother tongue speakers below school age as
well as small numbers of elderly people in traditional Welsh speaking
regions. Almost without exception, Welsh speakers in Wales also speak
English[.]" (although there is a citation needed tag in there)

So I think it is sufficiently unusual that we don't need to worry too
much about it.
