Wrexham, close to the Cheshire border, is the largest settlement in North Wales and formerly one of the most industrialised areas in Wales. The complex network of railways is a big reminder of this part of Wrexhams history. The town had several breweries but all commercial brewing has now stopped. Bricks were produced on the outskirts of Wrexham and coal mining was also an important industry. In more recent times, Wrexham has hosted the the National Eisteddfod - a Welsh festival of literature, on several occasions. Central Station is a popular venue for touring bands including the likes of The Charlatans, Bloc Party, Ash and Shed Seven. The remains of Holt Castle lie to the east of the town and the medieval bridge nearby was of strategic importance during the 17th century. The local team, Wrexham AFC plays their home games at Racecourse Ground which is also the home of Liverpool FC reserve team. Former town residents have included singer Annie Lennox, former Liverpool FC goalkeeper Bruce Grobelaar, benefactor of Yale University Elihu Yale, actor Ricky Tomlinson and footballer Robbie Savage
