About

Gowerton is a residential and commercial area situated north of Swansea city centre. The community is positioned at the junction of several key roads, connecting it to other districts. Its landscape is partly defined by the Loughor estuary to the west, which influences the local environment. The area contains a mix of housing, local shops, and schools serving its population.

A notable local landmark is the former Gowerton railway station building, which reflects the area's historical development. The surrounding land includes both built-up streets and more open, marshy ground near the water. Regular bus services provide transport links into Swansea and to nearby villages. The area functions as a local hub for the surrounding residential neighbourhoods.
