About

Caldicot Cross is a residential ward situated in the town of Caldicot, within the county of Monmouthshire. The area is primarily composed of housing estates, including the large Severn View development, built to accommodate the town's growth. It contains local amenities such as a supermarket, schools, and community facilities, serving the daily needs of its residents. The ward is bordered by open countryside to the north and west, providing a contrast to the built-up residential zones.

A notable local feature is the presence of the Caldicot Cross roundabout itself, a major traffic junction where several key roads converge. The ward's layout is defined by this central point, with residential streets radiating outwards. It lies close to the Caldicot Castle and Country Park, though the park itself is located in a neighbouring ward.
