Cynwyd

Cynwyd is a small village and community in the Edeirnion area of Denbighshire in Wales, located about 2 miles south west of the town of Corwen. It had a population of 528 in 2001, increasing to 542 at the census 2011, and is home to a large factory, run by Ifor Williams Trailers.

Gwerclas Hall is situated approximately 1.5 km north-west of Cynwyd village. The present grade II* listed building dates mainly to 1767 and was built for Hugh Hughes Lloyd, replacing a house that had stood on the site for several hundred years. It was constructed in three storeys with a three bay frontage and a central pedimented porch entrance. The Gwerclas estate became part of the Rhug estate in 1824 on the death of Richard Hughes until it was sold in 1972.
