Map of the UK

Henllan is a small, quietly scenic parish in rural Denbighshire in north-east Wales, centred on a village and surrounding farmland. It sits near the lower slopes of the rolling hills that feed into the Clwydian Range and the Vale of Clwyd, so it is popular with walkers and anyone wanting easy access to quiet country lanes, hedgerows and traditional stone-built cottages.

The area retains a strong rural character: agriculture remains important, though a modest amount of tourism and small rural businesses now supplement the local economy. Historically the parish grew up around a medieval church and a scattering of farmsteads, and socially it still supports community halls and local events that reflect a bilingual Welsh-English identity and a close-knit village life.
