About

The Gwernaffield and Gwernymynydd ward lies on the western edge of Flintshire, a rural area of rolling hills and small settlements bordering Denbighshire. The landscape is defined by farmland and woodland, with the community primarily spread across its two main villages and several smaller hamlets.

A notable local landmark is the historic Gwysaney Hall estate, a privately owned Tudor mansion set within its own parkland.
