Mold

Area Guide For Mold

Mold (Welsh: Yr Wyddgrug) is a town in Flintshire, North Wales, on the River Alyn. It is the administrative seat of Flintshire County Council, and was the county town of Clwyd from 1974 to 1996. According to the 2001 UK Census, it has a population of 9,568. There is some debate about the origin of the placename. Mold either originates from the Norman-French "mont-hault" (high hill)or from Robert de Montalt and is recorded as Mohald in a document of 1254. The Welsh language placename of Yr Wyddgrug is recorded as Gythe Gruc in a document of 1280-1, and comes from the words "Yr" (the), "gwydd" (tomb, sepulchre) and "crug" (mound). The town grew up around the now ruined Mold Castle, built by Robert de Montalt in around 1140, and the site of frequent battles between English and Welsh forces. The castle was apparently captured for the Welsh by Owain Gwynedd in 1146, though it is equally possible that reports of this event refer to a castle of the same name in mid-Wales. It was lost to Henry II of England in 1167, and recaptured by the Welsh in 1201. A further period of English authority commenced in 1241, when Dafydd ap Llywelyn yielded possession of the castle to the de Montalt family;Uniquely-placed Flintshire is the gateway to Wales – but don’t rush through: stop a while, and let us help you discover this truly lovely county.
