Clwyd, Administrative region in northern Wales, United Kingdom
Clwyd encompasses 2,906 square kilometers of diverse terrain, from coastal areas along the Irish Sea to mountains and agricultural valleys inland.
The region transformed from Celtic settlements through Roman occupation to become a preserved county in 1994, following major administrative changes in Wales.
The Welsh language remains present throughout the region, with bilingual signs and place names reflecting the strong connection to Welsh heritage.
The preserved county contains four main administrative areas: Conwy County Borough, Denbighshire, Flintshire, and Wrexham County Borough.
The Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, located within Clwyd's boundaries, carries boats and water across the River Dee at a height of 38 meters.
