About

Llantarnam is a residential ward situated on the northern outskirts of Cwmbran. The area is characterised by housing estates, local schools, and community facilities like the Llantarnam Grange Arts Centre. Its landscape includes the open green spaces of Llantarnam Park and the playing fields surrounding Cwmbran Stadium, providing recreational space for residents. The ward is bordered by the A4042 road, which connects it to central Cwmbran and the wider motorway network.

A notable local landmark is the historic Llantarnam Abbey, a former Cistercian monastery with surviving architectural elements. The ward's layout includes the distinct neighbourhoods of Old Cwmbran and Llantarnam Village, which retain a separate character from the newer town centre. Industrial activity is focused in the eastern parts, near the distribution parks along the Southern Distributor Road.
