(S/E) From Golden Lion Pub front door, turn right and walk past the church. Turn right into Station Road. At the end of the road, cross the railway and walk under the A483 underpass.
Follow the road to a junction by a weir; cross over and turn left along the pavement, with the River Alyn beyond the road to your left.
(1) Just after a house on the left, take a signposted footpath to cross the river via a footbridge. Turn right along the river, and pass under a road bridge (the official right of way leads up to and over the road and then diagonally left across the two fields beyond, but a well-used path follows the riverbank).
(2) Keep alongside the river until you reach a footbridge and then a farm bridge. Turn left here, leaving the river, and strike out across the field to a stile in the hedge. Cross the busy A483 through a gap in the crash barrier. Go under the railway arch beyond, and turn right along a bridleway into Marford Quarry Nature Reserve.
(3) Beyond the disabled parking, keep along the main track, ignoring paths to left and right. Beyond a prominent bank, swing left, still on the main track, with the main quarry to your left. The track narrows and leads uphill through the woods to emerge in Pant village.
(4) Turn left and follow the road right to a T-junction. Cross via the zebra crossing and follow the short road beyond the barriers opposite. At the next junction, turn left and follow the narrowing lane until it bends right. Take the lane straight ahead (Pistyll Hill), which descends to another road junction.
(5) Turn left then right into Cox Lane. Follow the lane for a little over half a mile, passing a series of farms and isolated houses.
(6) At a right-hand bend, with the impressive frontage of Trevalyn Manor visible to your left, turn left onto a bridleway signposted to Rossett. The bridleway winds across a field to meet the end of Manor Lane by a house. Continue along the lane, passing the entrances to Trevalyn Manor and then the Mill House, to emerge on the main street in Rossett.
(7) Turn right over the bridge, then immediately right down some steps and along a riverside path. Follow the path to the left when it leaves the riverside, to reach the end of Gun Street. Follow Gun Street to emerge opposite the Golden Lion. (S/E)
