Ponciau

About

Ponciau is a residential ward situated in the village of Rhosllanerchrugog, within the wider Wrexham County Borough. The area is characterised by its rows of traditional terraced housing, which reflect its historical development alongside the local coal mining industry.

The landscape is marked by the prominent spoil heap known locally as the "Ponciau Banks," a grassy hill created from mining waste that now offers panoramic views across the region. This feature is a central part of the local geography. Green spaces like Ponciau Park provide recreational areas for residents within the built-up environment.
