About

The Bangor-on-Dee, Overton & Penley area encompasses a primarily rural part of eastern Wrexham, characterised by agricultural land and the meandering course of the River Dee. The village of Bangor-on-Dee is notable for its historic racecourse, one of the few in Britain dedicated solely to National Hunt racing. The landscape is defined by flat, fertile floodplains near the river, with the settlements of Overton and Penley situated on slightly higher ground.

Overton, designated a Conservation Area, features a distinctive circular churchyard with ancient yew trees, some believed to be over 1,500 years old. Penley, historically part of Flintshire, retains a quiet, linear character. The area's economy has long been connected to the land, with farming remaining central, while the former Penley Hospital site has been redeveloped for community and business use.
