Brick Kiln Rough is a wooded area located in Flintshire, a county in northeast Wales. This picturesque forest is characterized by its dense foliage, towering trees, and abundant wildlife. Covering an area of approximately 100 hectares, Brick Kiln Rough offers a peaceful retreat for nature enthusiasts and outdoor enthusiasts alike.

The forest is primarily composed of native tree species, such as oak, birch, and beech, which create a beautiful canopy that provides shade and shelter for a variety of flora and fauna. The forest floor is covered in a carpet of ferns, wildflowers, and mosses, creating a vibrant and diverse ecosystem.

Visitors to Brick Kiln Rough can enjoy a network of well-maintained walking trails that meander through the forest, allowing them to explore its natural beauty at their own pace. These trails provide a chance to spot a wide range of wildlife, including deer, squirrels, rabbits, and a variety of bird species.

In addition to its natural beauty, Brick Kiln Rough also has historical significance. The name "Brick Kiln" originates from the area's past use as a brick-making site, where bricks were produced using the clay found in the forest. Although no remnants of the brick kilns remain, the name serves as a reminder of the area's industrial heritage.

Overall, Brick Kiln Rough offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, providing visitors with an opportunity to immerse themselves in nature and discover the rich biodiversity of Flintshire.

North Wales Expressway (A55) near Pen-y-Cefn The A55, also known as the North Wales Expressway (Gwibffordd Gogledd Cymru), is the major road in North Wales running for 88 miles between Chester and Holyhead via Conwy and Bangor. The A55 is a very high quality road, much of it rebuilt since the 1970s in response to traffic problems in Colwyn Bay, Colwyn and Llandudno caused by traffic having to pass through town centres on totally unsuitable streets, (especially in Conwy where lorries often scraped their paintwork as they passed through 12th century arches in the town's walls), leading to the construction of an east-west expressway bypassing the urban centres. It is a dual carriageway primary route for its entire length with the exception of the point where it crosses the Britannia Bridge over the Menai Strait. All of its junctions are grade separated except for two roundabouts; one east of Penmaenmawr and one in Llanfairfechan. The road originally ran from Chester to Bangor but was extended parallel to the A5 across Anglesey right into Holyhead Docks in 2001. <span class="nowrap"><a title="http://www.sabre-roads.org.uk/wiki/index.php?title=A55" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" href="http://www.sabre-roads.org.uk/wiki/index.php?title=A55">Link</a><img style="margin-left:2px;" alt="External link" title="External link - shift click to open in new window" src="https://s1.geograph.org.uk/img/external.png" width="10" height="10"/></span> SABRE
