The River Terrig ((ウェールズ語:Afon Terrig)) is a small river in north-east Wales. The river rises at Llyn Cyfynwy near Graianrhyd village in the community of Llanarmon-yn-Ial, Denbighshire, about three miles from the source of the River Alyn.〔''Cambridge County Geographies: Flintshire'', Cambridge University Press, p.25〕 It then flows northwards and eastwards, forming the boundary between the old parishes of Nercwys and Treuddyn. At Nant-y-Mynydd it is joined by several small springs from Mynydd Ddu, and finally itself joins the River Alyn at Pontblyddyn, Flintshire.〔 The Terrig is a habitat for brown trout. Its name is derived from its rapid flow after times of heavy rain; Thomas Pennant, in his ''Tours in Wales'', described it as "the ''Terrig'', or the ''violent'', () often of a tremendous swell and fury".〔Pennant, T. ''Tours in Wales, Volume 2'', Wilkie and Robinson, 1810, p.44〕 ==References==
