Clydach

About

Clydach ward lies in the Tawe Valley, north of Swansea city centre. The area is defined by the river and the surrounding steep, wooded hillsides. Historically shaped by industry, the ward includes residential neighbourhoods, local shopping streets, and areas of green space along the valley floor. The community is served by several primary schools and local amenities, with housing comprising a mix of traditional terraced homes and more modern developments.

A prominent local feature is the large Mond Nickel Works site, a legacy of the area's industrial past. The Swansea Canal path runs through the ward, providing a route for walkers and cyclists. The landscape is a blend of post-industrial land and natural woodland, particularly on the valley slopes. Clydach maintains its own distinct identity separate from the contiguous urban areas to the south.
