About

Llanrumney sits in the east of Cardiff, bounded by the River Rhymney to its west. The area is primarily residential, with a mix of post-war housing estates and more recent developments. Its geography is defined by the rolling Llanrumney Hall grounds and the open space of the Eastern Leisure Centre complex, which serves as a local hub. The ward maintains a distinct community identity, separate from the adjacent areas of Rumney and Pentwyn.

The area's history is tied to the former Llanrumney Hall estate, with the modern layout centered around major roads like Ball Road and Countisbury Avenue. A notable local feature is the prominent hilltop site of St Illtyd's Church, which offers broad views across the valley. Community facilities are focused around the local high school and several shopping parades, providing for day-to-day needs within the ward.
