Bersham

Bersham lies in part of the Clywedog Valley and Trail that skirts around the south and west of Wrexham and includes several places of industrial interest. It passes through Plas Power and Nant Mill, woods that stretch along the River Clywedog between Bersham and Coedpoeth. A well preserved section of Offa’s Dyke cuts through Plas Power. The village was established around 1670 and was the home of the Davis Brothers. The fine workmanship of these two famous iron masters can be seen in the beautiful gates at Chirk Park and at St Giles’ Church in Wrexham.

The master and owner of Bersham Ironworks from 1762, John ‘Iron Mad’ Wilkinson, was famous for the cannons he bored for use in the American War of Independence, and for the cylinders he produced for James Watt’s steam engines. The ironworks are open in the summer, the Heritage Centre all year round.
