About

Aberkenfig sits within the Llynfi Valley, characterised by its position along the A4063 road. The area is primarily residential, with housing developments ranging from traditional terraces to more modern estates. Local commerce is centred around a small cluster of shops and services catering to daily needs. The ward includes the neighbouring village of Brynmenyn, with the Llynfi River forming a natural feature through the community.

The area's history is tied to the coal mining industry, though little visible infrastructure remains. Recreational space is provided by Bryngarw Country Park, located on its eastern fringe, which offers woodland walks and formal gardens. Public transport connections via bus services link the ward to Bridgend town centre and other valley communities. The topography is defined by the gentle slopes of the valley sides surrounding the settlement.
