About

Erddig ward lies on the southern outskirts of Wrexham, bordering the Clywedog river valley. The area is largely residential, with housing developments and local services centred around the communities of Rhostyllen and Bersham. It is characterised by green spaces, playing fields, and proximity to the wooded slopes of the valley, offering a transition from the urban centre to the countryside.

The ward is defined by the National Trust's Erddig Hall, an early 18th-century country house with extensive historic gardens and parkland. This estate shapes much of the local landscape and heritage. The area also includes the site of the former Bersham Ironworks, a key location in Wales' industrial history, with remnants and a heritage centre marking its past significance.
