Pwllglas is on the A494, which runs through the middle of the village, and contains three cul-de-sacs: Erw Las, Dyffryn, and Tan y Bryn. The nearby village of Bryn Saith Marchog is four miles away.
Pwllglas has a thriving local community centred on the village hall, and 2013 saw the reinstatement of a village shop in the hall,[1] which won the "Village shop / Post office" category in the Countryside Alliance awards in February 2016.[2] There is also a public house in the village, named The Fox and Hounds, and the nine-hole Ruthin-Pwllglas Golf Club lies just outside the village towards Ruthin.
