About

Colwyn ward lies on the north coast of Wales, stretching from the promenade of Colwyn Bay inland to the residential areas of Old Colwyn. The area is centred around the town centre and its retail streets, with housing extending into the surrounding suburban hillsides.

A notable feature is the Victoria Pier, a historic structure extending into the bay. The ward contains several parks and green spaces, including Eirias Park, which hosts a range of sporting and leisure facilities. The local economy is supported by a mix of independent shops and larger retail outlets situated along the main thoroughfares leading from the coast.
