Levelling Up Fund: Wenffrwd Nature Reserve

Funded by UK Government logo

Project background

Project background

Wenffrwd is a former brownfield site taken over by Denbighshire Countryside Services in 2018. Since then, Countryside Services have worked to develop the site into a nature reserve while also providing additional parking to access the local countryside and Llangollen Canal World Heritage Site. The elements that were incorporated within this project activity support the further development of this local and tourism amenity.

This project improved the town links to and from Wenffrwd Nature Reserve through the creation of additional walking / cycling paths, including a new route along the disused railway line between the Nature Reserve and Llangollen Health Centre, and the creation of a link path to the Llangollen Canal towpath, part of the World Heritage Site. It also made enhancements to the existing industrial compound on site, turning it into a practical work and community space.
