ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Pen-y-Nant is a Grade II listed brick, Westmoreland slate-roofed, building which was completed in 1918 by a local philanthropist to provide for miners convalescing from pit injuries. It was built on a site which was believed at the time to be the warmest part of the village. It is in a conservation area and is at an altitude of c. 800 ft on the fringe of the Berwyn Hills and an area of outstanding natural beauty.

Pen-y-Nant is on the fringes of Minera, a village which formerly was a main centre for lead mining, silica mining, lime quarrying; Local men also worked in Brymbo steel works and nearby coal mines in Gresford, Hafod and Bersham, for example. It is about 4 miles from Wrexham and its supermarkets and other shopping etc. with easy access to the A483 bypass, the M56 and other motorways. There is a regular bus service to Wrexham and good bus and railway connections from Wrexham to other parts of the UK. Welsh residents over 60 can enjoy free ‘bus travel within Wales. The Anglican parish church is next along the road from Pen-y-Nant and there is a good church-aided primary school. Sadly the local Welsh chapels have long-since closed and there are few remaining Welsh first language residents. There are extensive local walks both on the hills and in the woodland valleys nearby, including through a former lime quarry now managed by the North Wales wild-life trust.

The 2 storey building was converted into 10 residential apartments, 5 on each floor, in 2006. Apartment 3 is on the ground floor of the side of the building away from the road and enjoys extensive woodland views of the Clywedog valley towards Shrewsbury. It has its own sunny terraced private garden, approximately 15 x 9 metres, with two covered external porches between the garden and the interior, accessed by external doors from the main living room. The main entrance to the apartment at the front of the building facing the road is via a communal hall, shared with 3 other first floor apartments. There are 2 dedicated car parking spaces, additional visitor parking and a small external bike shed.
