The area includes the historic town centre with its market and guildhall, alongside residential streets that extend towards the A40. It functions as the primary administrative and commercial hub for the wider region, containing key civic buildings, retail outlets, and service providers.

Residential areas consist of a mix of traditional terraced housing and more modern developments on its western edges. The presence of the county council headquarters and the main campus of Coleg Sir Gâr underscores its institutional role. Regular markets and the flow of traffic across the Old Bridge characterise the daily rhythm of the area.
