Coed Talon
Village in Flintshire, Wales / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coed Talon (also spelt "Coed-talon") is a small, formerly industrial village between Leeswood and Treuddyn in Flintshire, Wales. Its name is derived from the Welsh word coed ("wood") and the word talwrn, anglicised to "Talon", meaning a "hillside devoid of trees" or "threshing-floor" (perhaps referring to a wood beneath a bare hillside).[1] Other translations of "Talwrn" suggest the words "lumber", "spot" or "field" (reference from University of Wales translation tool).
