Craig y Forwyn ("Maiden's Crag") is a crag that encloses the northern side of World's End, near the town of Llangollen in Denbighshire, Wales.[1] It is part of the limestone escarpment that separates the Eglwyseg Valley from the higher Ruabon Moors and, along with nearby Craig Arthur, is a popular site for rock climbing. Evidence of lead and silver mining is found just to the west.[2] The Offa's Dyke Path runs along its foot.
The crag is mentioned in George Borrow's Wild Wales. Borrow, while walking from Llangollen to Wrexham, notices "an enormous crag of a strange form rising to the very heavens". When a local tells him that it is called Craig y Forwyn, he asks about the origin of the name, receiving the response, "I do not know sir; some people say that it is called so because its head is like that of a woman, others because a young girl in love leaped from the top of it and was killed."[3]
