About

The Graig and Pontypridd West ward lies on the western bank of the River Taff, directly opposite the town centre. Its topography is defined by steep, wooded slopes rising sharply from the river valley, with residential streets terraced into the hillside. The area is primarily residential, featuring a mix of traditional terraced housing and larger detached properties, with local amenities clustered along key routes like Graigwen Road.

A notable feature is the Graig Cemetery, a large Victorian burial ground that cascades dramatically down the hillside, offering panoramic views across Pontypridd. The ward includes the original site of the Pontypridd Railway Station and is traversed by the Taff Trail, a popular walking and cycling path following the river. Community life centres around local schools, chapels, and several small commercial parades serving the immediate neighbourhood.
