the capital town in Denbighshire in North Wales. It is seated on the side of a rocky hill, on a branch of the river Clwyd, and was formerly a place of great strength, with an impregnable castle, now demolished. It is pretty large, well-built, and inhabited by by tanners and glovers, and gives the title of earl to the noble family of Fielding. W. Long. 3. 30. N. Lat. 53. 15.
