The building of the Penygraig housing estate had begun in the 1920s on what had previously been farmland and old coal-mines. Gradually the whole area was filled up, reaching its current size in the mid-1970s.

This is a view of part of the estate taken in the mid-1980s from Mount Pleasant. You can also get some idea of the fantastic views across the Cheshire Plain which are one of the true joys of living here.
