About

Carmarthen North encompasses the northern neighbourhoods of this historic market town, situated on the north bank of the River Tywi. The area includes residential districts like Johnstown and Llangunnor, characterised by a mix of housing from traditional terraces to modern estates. Its landscape gradually rises from the river valley, offering views towards the town centre and the remains of Carmarthen Castle. The presence of the A40 and A485 roads establishes it as a key route for travel into the town and further west into Pembrokeshire.

The area is home to significant institutions including Carmarthen Park, the town's main sports and recreation ground, and the campus of the University of Wales Trinity Saint David. This lends a steady academic presence alongside local community life. A notable local feature is the Llangunnor parish church, which sits on a hilltop site with ancient origins, overlooking the Tywi Valley. The geography is defined by the river's course and the surrounding wooded hills of the Carmarthenshire countryside.
