About

Mold South ward encompasses the southern neighbourhoods of the town itself, along with the adjacent village of Gwernymynydd. The area is largely residential, with housing ranging from Victorian terraces to modern estates, set along streets that climb the lower slopes of the surrounding hills. It contains several primary schools and local convenience shops, serving the daily needs of its residents.

The ward is defined by its proximity to the expansive Loggerheads Country Park, which lies just to its south-west. This provides direct access to wooded trails and the steep limestone gorge of the River Alyn. A notable local landmark is the medieval motte of Bailey Hill, a grassy mound in a public park that marks the original Norman fortification around which the town later grew.
