Connah's Quay, Industrial town in Flintshire, Wales
Located along the River Dee near the England-Wales border, Connah's Quay extends across multiple residential districts with a population of 16,771 residents.
The settlement, recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Wepre, developed into a significant port after Chester's harbor experienced navigation problems due to river silting.
St Mark's Church and St David's Church serve as central gathering places for religious activities, while the Grade II listed Top-y-Fron Hall represents Georgian architecture.
The town maintains direct road connections through the M56 and A494, with Shotton railway station providing transportation services one mile from the center.
John Summers & Sons established steel production facilities in 1896, transforming the area into a manufacturing center that continues operating under Tata Steel.
