About

Llandovery ward encompasses the historic market town of the same name, situated where the River Bran meets the River Towy. The area is defined by its position within the broad Towy Valley, with surrounding uplands forming a distinct rural landscape. The local economy has traditional ties to agriculture and livestock, with the weekly market remaining a central fixture. The ward includes several outlying villages and hamlets, contributing to a dispersed population across its agricultural land.

The town's layout is compact, centred on its stone-built square and narrow streets that reflect its medieval origins. A notable feature is the ruined Norman castle, overlooking the river confluence from its strategic mound. The area is a known gateway to the western Brecon Beacons, influencing local activity. Community life is supported by a range of small, independent shops and services catering to both residents and visitors travelling through this part of Carmarthenshire.
