About

The Llantrisant and Talbot Green ward lies on the western edge of Rhondda Cynon Taf, centred around the historic market town of Llantrisant on its hilltop. The area's geography is defined by this clear division between the old town's narrow streets and the modern commercial development of Talbot Green in the valley below. This creates a distinct character, with the historic core overlooking the more contemporary retail and business parks that serve a wider region.

A focal point is the Royal Mint, which has been located here for decades and is a major local employer. The ward functions as a significant retail and service hub for the surrounding valleys, with its large shopping and leisure complexes. Llantrisant Common provides open upland space with panoramic views, contrasting with the busy valley floor and maintaining a tangible link to the area's past.
