Gwespyr

Gwespyr, also sometimes spelled Gwespyrr, is a small village and community in the county of Flintshire, North Wales. It is located near the larger towns of Prestatyn and Rhyl, and within a short distance of the North Wales coast.

Gwespyr is primarily a rural area, characterized by farmland and scattered residential properties. The village is known for its historical connection to limestone quarrying. The distinctive Gwespyr limestone, quarried in the area, has been used in construction projects throughout North Wales and beyond. Remnants of the old quarries can still be seen in the landscape.

The area surrounding Gwespyr offers opportunities for outdoor activities such as walking and cycling. The village itself features a small community church.

The economy of Gwespyr is largely based on agriculture and local businesses. While the limestone quarrying industry has significantly declined from its peak, its legacy remains an important part of the village's history and identity.
