About

Langstone sits on the northern edge of Newport, bordering ancient woodland and the M4 motorway. The area is characterised by a mix of residential housing and light industrial units. Its landscape is defined by the presence of Caerleon Camp, a large, active quarry that has significantly shaped the local topography over many decades. The historic Langstone Court, a 17th-century manor house, stands as a notable local landmark amidst this setting.

Llanwern lies to the south, historically centred around the vast former steelworks site which dominated the area for much of the 20th century. This large-scale redevelopment zone now includes new housing, commercial space, and the active Llanwern steel finishing plant. The area is bordered by the wetlands of the River Usk's estuary, with the East Usk Lighthouse standing on the riverbank. Residential areas here are primarily modern, built following the steelworks' decline.
