The site was the location of Pentre Mill, a corn mill dating to the early 19th century. The mill was powered by a water wheel near the River Alyn; the water wheel was closed in the 1940s and restored in the 1990s. The park was also the location of lead mining and quarrying.

Loggerheads Country Park on the edge of the Clwydian Range has a wooded river valley that follows the course of the River Alyn and great views of Moel Famau. The park has a visitor centre, woodland walks, a historic corn mill (Pentre Mill) and the steep-sided Devil's Gorge. There's also good mountain biking.
