Arllechwedd

About

Arllechwedd ward lies within the mountainous heart of Snowdonia in Gwynedd. Its landscape is defined by rugged terrain, deep valleys, and high peaks, including parts of the Carneddau range. The area is sparsely populated, with small settlements like Rowen and Tal-y-bont situated along the old coaching route of the A55 corridor. Land use is primarily agricultural, with sheep farming dominating the lower slopes amidst a pattern of traditional stone walls and farmsteads.

The ward contains significant stretches of the Afon Conwy river as it flows from its source towards the coastal estuary. This is a region deeply associated with Welsh language and heritage, with a high proportion of Welsh speakers. Historical routes, including ancient trackways, traverse the area, linking the interior uplands to the broader Conwy Valley. The environment supports important habitats for native species within this expansive, open countryside.
