About

Grangetown North is a residential district situated directly west of Cardiff city centre, bordering the River Taff. Its streets are primarily lined with terraced houses, many of which are Victorian and Edwardian in origin. The area functions as a practical residential zone for the city, with local shops and services concentrated along its main thoroughfares.

The district's western edge is defined by the expansive Cardiff Bay Retail Park, a significant commercial hub. A notable local landmark is the Grangetown Nursery, one of the oldest and largest community-run gardening projects in the city, occupying a long strip of land near the railway line. The area provides straightforward access to both the city centre and the waterfront developments of Cardiff Bay.
