About

A notable local feature is the large weekly livestock market, one of the most significant in West Wales, which draws farmers from across the region. The surrounding countryside features wooded valleys and areas of traditional pasture. The community maintains a strong Welsh cultural identity, with many residents speaking Welsh.
