Penrhyn-coch

Penrhyn-coch has a range of facilities including a school, post office, petrol station, social club, tennis courts, children's playground, two places of worship St. John's parish church and Horeb Nonconformist chapel, three halls and a nursery.

Just outside the village is a Natural Resources Wales (formerly Forestry Commission) site named Gogerddan Allt Ddel, with hillwalking and picnic facilities.

The village started to develop at the end of the 18th century, but major growth did not occur until after the break-up of the Gogerddan Estate in the 1940s.

A memorial to the fallen of both World Wars who came from the village and surrounding area can be found outside the post office.

Penrhyn-coch was the birthplace of the great 14th-century poet Dafydd ap Gwilym and home for a period in the 1750s to hydrographer and scholar Lewis Morris.
