About

Mostyn ward occupies a coastal strip along the Dee Estuary in northern Flintshire. The area is primarily residential, with housing concentrated in the villages of Mostyn and Ffynnongroyw. The local economy has historical ties to industry, notably the nearby Mostyn docks which handle freight and have been a significant employer. The landscape here is characterised by flat, reclaimed land with agricultural fields and estuarine views.

A notable feature is the extensive Mostyn Colliery spoil tip, now grassed over and known locally as 'The Alps', which offers walking routes and vantage points. The Wales Coast Path runs through the ward, providing access to the shoreline and its birdlife. Community facilities are centred around the villages, with several schools and local shops serving the population.
