About

Llanegwad ward covers a largely rural area in the southeast of Carmarthenshire, situated between the towns of Carmarthen and Llandeilo. The landscape is defined by the River Tywi, which forms a broad valley floor here, with agricultural land and woodland rising to the surrounding hills. The ward includes the small village of Llanegwad itself, along with a scattering of farms and hamlets like Glangwili and Nantgaredig. This is a quiet, sparsely populated part of the county.

The area's character is closely tied to the river and its history of farming. A notable local feature is the partially restored Nantgaredig Woollen Mill, a reminder of the area's small-scale industrial past. The main A40 road runs through the ward, connecting it to the wider region, while quieter lanes lead to the riverbanks and upland areas. The community is served by a primary school and a village hall, focusing life around its central settlement.
