About

Aberbargoed and Bargoed ward lies in the Rhymney Valley, centred on the town of Bargoed. The area is shaped by its industrial past, with the prominent Bargoed Colliery tip, now landscaped and known locally as the 'Bargoed Alps', serving as a lasting physical landmark. The main commercial area runs along the A469 road, with residential streets extending into the surrounding hillsides.

The ward includes the neighbouring community of Aberbargoed, connected by the Bargoed Retail Park. The area is home to Bargoed Library and the historic Bargoed Wood, a local woodland reserve with walking paths. The former railway line through the valley now forms part of a wider cycle network, providing a traffic-free route through the landscape.
