Very rude of me, I forgot to welcome you to Rootsweb

Thanks everyone for the replies. & welcome

Yes the steel works has now gone and they are building houses and industrial units. The only blessing is we can only see a few of the houses on the top the the steel works bank.

There is not as many houses here now as there used to be. I would say at a rough guess a max of 40 houses.

As its a nice day today, I will go up on the old railway line and take a picture of how it is now.

Hi,  Reading your message I get the feeling that you where told about the Church and Post office in the Lodge but someone has told you that they went there, don't know who has told you this as I used to shop in the Post office and the local voting place was the old church. There was also a judo club held in the church just before it was pulled down.  I can't remember the name of the lady who ran the Post office but I know she went to live just outside Wrexham.  From start to finish Lodge now has 71 or 72  houses.   Norma

Hi, At the moment I do not know where the pictures are of Lodge that I have got but you appear to be on the wrong site as Lodge is in Denbighshire not Flintshire and the address is Lodge near Brymbo not in Brymbo.  What year are you looking for.  Norma

please dont take this the wrong way but f.y.i lodge is in wrexham county borough not flintshire or denbighshire.

Of course you are correct in that Lodge is presently in the Borough of Wrexham,but historically it was in Denbighshire.

As` William says, for purposes of this forum and most genealogical records, it is in the old historical county of Denbighshire.  It was part of Clwyd from 1974-1996 and became part of Wrexham County Borough in April 1996.
