Open Parkland
Erddig Park (53°01′50″N 3°00′10″W / 53.0306°N 3.0027°W / 53.0306; -3.0027 (Erddig Park, Wrexham)) is situated two miles (3 km) south of the town centre, where the town meets the Clywedog Valley. The park is owned and managed by the National Trust, and is home to Erddig Hall and its formal gardens. The park is also home to a number of notable historic features. These include a hydraulic ram known as the "Cup and Saucer", which is used to pump water from the park to Erddig Hall, and the remains of Wristleham motte and bailey which is thought to be the beginnings of Wrexham as a town in the 12th century.
