Marford is famous for its quaint looking gothic cottages, these were built as part of the former Trefalyn estates. The style is called Cottage Orné , although some of the buildings are earlier, most were built at the end of the 18th until the beginning of the 19th centuries. Originally the buildings were roofed in thatch - some do have strange roof lines today which give away their history - however soon they were reroofed in Bwlch Yr Oernant slate. There are two pubs in Marford - one at the bottom of the hill - The Trevor Arms, the other at the top - The Red Lion . There are no shops in Marford or places of worship although there was a Non-conformist chapel in Cox Lane and another Wesleyan chapel on the old Turnpike lane in the Pant . Both are now houses. Marford is now an over developed dormitory village for Wrexham and Chester , there being no divide between it, Pant and Gresford . EXTERNAL LINKS |
