Description
Rhosllanerchrugog is a village located in the county borough of Wrexham. The entire built-up area, which includes Penycae Ruabon and Cefn-mawr, has a population of approximately 26,000.

Wrexham city centre is 4 miles away, National Trust Erddig is 3.5 miles distant and the Clwydian Range & Dee Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is 2 miles east.
The village lies just off the A483 which provides road connections to Wrexham and Chester northbound and to the A5 southbound. The A5 eastbound links to routes through Snowdonia National Park and to the North Wales Coast. Ruabon is the closest train station, from which rail services are run by Transport for Wales.
