About

Bagillt ward lies along the western bank of the Dee Estuary in northern Flintshire. The area is historically defined by its industrial past, with the remains of lime kilns and former lead smelting sites marking the landscape. Inland, the terrain rises towards the wooded slopes of Halkyn Mountain, providing a distinct contrast to the flat, estuarine foreshore. The ward includes the main village of Bagillt itself, along with the smaller, linear settlement of Walwen to the south.

The Bagillt Brook runs through the community, draining the local hills before meeting the estuary. A specific local feature is the Bagillt Ffrith, a designated wildlife area on reclaimed industrial land that now supports wetlands and meadows. The area's economy has shifted, though some light industry remains near the A548 coast road. Residential streets are largely concentrated around the historic core, with views often directed across the wide estuary waters towards the Wirral peninsula.
