Carl,

From a chart on the end papers of a book "A Lifetime with
Ships" by Tom Coppack (about Connah's Quay shipping) Wild Road
is the channel S of West Hoyle Bank, between Point of Ayr and
a bank called Salisbury Middle. It appears from the bouyage
that Wild Road is the main channel for the approach to Mostyn
and Llanerch-y-mor.
