Ffordd Llaneurgain and Ann Moon's Cottage
Looking along Ffordd Llaneurgain/Northop Road in the direction of Flint. On the right is the cottage built by Ann Moon in 1890 as a lodge for the adjacent cemetery.
Ann Moon was the aunt of the wife of Richard Muspratt the chemical manufacturer who was forced to move his chemical works from Liverpool to Flint in the 1800s because of the 'pollution and public nuisance' that his factories had caused in the city. His enterprise in Flint employed over 2,000 people, but it was dirty and unhealthy work, and Richard himself died in 1885 at the age of 63. Possibly this is why Ann Moon chose to provide this lodge cottage for the cemetery?
There is a plaque on the gable end of the cottage Image and a bench mark at the foot of the roadside wall, below and to the right of the plaque Image
