History
"This place is, from its name, supposed to have been the Roman station Varis, and the opinion has been in some degree confirmed by the recent discovery of urns, ornaments, fragments of weapons, and other relics of Roman antiquity, in the grounds of Pontrifith, and some coins near the junctions of the rivers Clwyd and Whielor, the supposed site of the Roman station." [ A Topographical Dictionary of Wales, S. Lewis, 1834] The parish contains the townships of Bodfari (old Flintshire) and Aberwheeler (old Denbighshire).
