Isycoed (Welsh: Is-y-coed[1]) is a village and community in Wrexham County Borough, Wales. It lies around 5 miles to the east of Wrexham, close to the River Dee on the border with England.[2][3][4]

There is a primary school in Bowling Bank, and a late-Georgian church, dedicated to St. Paul, in Isycoed village,[5] which was designated as a Grade II listed building on 20 June 1996.

It will be the location of the 2025 Wrexham National Eisteddfod.[6]
