About

Chirk South ward lies in the southernmost part of Wrexham County Borough, bordering Shropshire in England. The area is defined by the Ceiriog Valley, with the River Ceiriog flowing through it. The landscape is primarily rural, featuring farmland and wooded slopes that form part of the Welsh Marches. The settlement of Chirk itself sits at the ward's heart, with its infrastructure supporting the surrounding communities.

The ward is anchored by Chirk's historic assets, including Chirk Castle and its extensive parkland, which is managed by the National Trust. The nineteenth-century Chirk Aqueduct and Viaduct, carrying the Llangollen Canal and railway respectively, are significant local landmarks. Economic activity has traditionally been linked to agriculture and, historically, to industries like quarrying. The A5 road forms a major transport route along the ward's edge.
