Denbighshire is a county in north Wales. It has a population of around 100,000 people and covers an area of around 1,200 square miles. The county town is Denbigh, but the largest town is Wrexham.

The county is bounded by the counties of Flintshire and Conwy to the north, Powys to the east, Shropshire to the south-east, and Cheshire to the south-west. Denbighshire has a coastline on the Irish Sea to the west.

The county is largely rural, with around two-thirds of the population living in villages or hamlets. Agriculture is the main industry, with dairy farming and beef production being particularly important. There are also many tourist attractions, such as castles and stately homes, which bring visitors to the area.

The county of Denbighshire has a long history. It was originally part of the Kingdom of Gwynedd, but later became part of the English county of Chester. In 1536, it was made into a separate county called Denbighshire. The county has been represented in Parliament since 1295, and in the Welsh Assembly since 1999.
