It lies between the towns of Mold and Buckley, in the community of Argoed. New Brighton lies on the A5119 road and has a hotel, the Beaufort Park Hotel. A New Brighton electoral ward exists, formed from the northern half of the Argoed community, with a total population taken at the 2011 census of 3,001. It forms part of an "Argoed and New Brighton" (Welsh: Argoed a New Brighton) council electoral ward.Some residents refer to it by its Welsh name Pentre Cythraul, though the Welsh name was not recognised by the Welsh Language Commissioner in 2018, causing local people to ask for this to be reviewed. Pentre Cythraul translates to "the devil's village", although said to have been possibly derived from Pentre Catherall, named after industrialist Josiah Catherall who built some of the village's rows of houses. In their list of standardised Welsh place-names in Flintshire as of November 2023, the Commissioner states the recommended name in Welsh, for Flintshire County Council to use, is "New Brighton".

St Mary's Church, Northop Hall is an Anglican congregation within the Parish of Northop, Northop Hall and Sychdyn, in the Deanery of Mold and the Diocese of St Asaph, the Church in Wales. The church was built 1911–12 of a design by L.W. Barnard of Cheltenham, a prolific architect. The original design was to include a tower, but this was never fully built. A rather abbreviated top was only added in 1962.Of particular note are the barrel ceiling and the organ which is of outstanding quality. The instrument was built in 1931 by Messrs. Rushworth & Dreaper, Liverpool and the opening recital was given by Dr. Middleton, then organist at Chester Cathedral. By utilising the reverberant acoustics of the church, the power of the organ is perfectly matched to the building into which it has been installed. To mark the 75th anniversary of its construction, well-attended organ recitals were given in 2006. The choristers of St. Asaph Cathedral also sang evensong in the church that year, accompanied by John Hosking on the organ.

Mynydd Isa ([ˌmənɨ̞ð ˈɪsa]; Welsh: Mynyddisa) is a village in Flintshire, in north-east Wales. It lies between the county town of Mold, and Buckley (which it is contiguous with) in the community of Argoed which had a population of 5837 according to the 2011 census. Mynydd Isa was originally a small hamlet on the north side of the Mold to Buckley road (now the A549 road) just downhill from the now demolished Calvinist chapel. It did not appear on Ordnance Survey maps until 1912. Its placename is Welsh for "lowest mountain". Another old hamlet nearby was Pant-y-Fownog, on the same road nearer Buckley (centred on the Griffin Inn); although the name was used well into the 1900s on picture postcards of the area and by the local Co-Op shop next to the Inn. The name has long since become disused (except for lending its name to a road in nearby Buckley). Bryn-y-Baal [ˌbrɨ̞nəˈbɑːl] is an old hamlet much enlarged since the 1970s and now contiguous with but not part of Mynydd Isa. Bryn-y-Baal takes its name from a Middle English word "bale" (rhymes with "Carl" in arhotic British English) meaning small hill and Bryn (Welsh for hill), i.e. hill hill. It was later written in a Welsh language form as 'bâl' with a circumflex over the "â". In Welsh this is pronounced as a long A. This form appears on early Ordnance Survey maps. Eventually it was written in the Anglicised form 'Baal' - still correctly pronounced to rhyme with "Carl".In the area there is a secondary school known as Argoed High School in Bryn-y-Baal and a primary school Ysgol Mynydd Isa - the Junior department being in Bryn-y-Baal (formerly Ysgol y Bryn and before that Mynydd Isa Junior School), and the Infants department (formerly known as Wat's Dyke Infant School) on a separate site in Mynydd Isa. The local community council is Argoed Community Council (Cyngor Cymunedol Argoed) - Argoed being the name of the ancient township which had covered the area since the Middle Ages, which also gives its name to the local secondary school. Amenities include a pub, The Griffin on Mold Road. (The Mercia on Mercia Drive closed in 2010, and is now a supermarket), various shops and the village centre which houses a cafe 'Caffi Isa', a community interest group located in the old library and other clubs and associations. The village has a large youth organisation (established in 1984) with football teams representing the village in the county league from 7 to 16 years old and adult football dating back to the 1930s; however the adult team disbanded in 2009. Famous people to have grown up in mynydd Isa include Ian Clayton Blackburn Rovers player in the 1990s.
