About

Lansdown ward sits on the western edge of Chepstow town, primarily a residential area characterised by modern housing estates and quiet suburban streets. The layout is orderly, with homes built across the latter half of the 20th century, creating a settled community atmosphere. It is bordered by the A48 road to the north, which connects it to the wider motorway network, while the steep limestone cliffs of the Wye Valley define its southern boundary, separating it from the river below.

The area includes local amenities such as a primary school and a large supermarket, serving the daily needs of residents. A notable feature is the presence of the Chepstow Racecourse, a National Hunt venue situated on the ward's high ground, with its grandstand visible from parts of the area. From certain points, there are views across the Severn Estuary towards the Forest of Dean, framed by the greenery of surrounding fields and woodland.
