🏙️ Penprysg

Penprysg is a residential area of the town of Pencoed in Bridgend County Borough, Wales. Located in the northern suburban district of Pencoed, it occupies a saddle where the town rises onto the sandstone ridge of Cefn Hirgoed, which extends about 5 km eastward from Kenfig Hill and reaches a height of 142 m on its central spine. The area evolved from ribbon development along Penprysg Road in the late nineteenth century and has since expanded through housing initiatives in the 1970s and post-2000 infill development, with the ward of Pencoed and Penprysg recording just over 10,000 residents in the 2021 Census.
