About

Llanybydder ward is a predominantly rural area in the north of Carmarthenshire, centred on the small market town of the same name. The landscape is characterised by rolling farmland and the valley of the River Teifi, which forms part of the northern boundary. Agriculture, particularly dairy and sheep farming, is central to the local economy. The area is connected by the A485 road, which links to Lampeter and Carmarthen.

The ward includes several smaller villages and hamlets, such as Cwmpengraig and Pencader. 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.
