Deeside, Industrial conurbation in Flintshire, Wales.
Deeside spans multiple towns and villages along the River Dee, including Connah's Quay, Shotton, and Queensferry, with a population of 50,000 residents.
The establishment of Shotton Steelworks in 1895 transformed the area from marshland into an industrial center, attracting thousands of workers to settle in the region.
The Heritage Centre within Connah's Quay Library preserves artifacts and documents that tell the story of local shipbuilding and maritime trading activities.
Transportation infrastructure includes the M56, A55, A494 roads, plus rail services at Shotton station connecting to major cities in Wales and England.
The Flintshire Bridge, constructed in 1998, serves as both a vital transportation link across the River Dee and a venue for Wales Rally GB events.
