About

Aberporth and Y Ferwig ward lies on the Cardigan Bay coastline, centred around the village of Aberporth.

The landscape consists of agricultural land and residential properties sloping down to the sea. The ward functions as a local community with primary schools and small businesses serving the resident population.
