About

Maesycwmmer is a ward situated in the Sirhowy Valley, northwest of Ystrad Mynach. The area is primarily residential, with housing estates built across its hillsides. The Sirhowy River flows through the ward, and the A472 road forms a major transport route alongside it. Land use includes some light industrial units near the river corridor, contrasting with the surrounding green uplands.

The community is served by local shops and a primary school. A specific local feature is the Maesycwmmer Viaduct, a prominent stone railway structure that crosses the valley. The ward contains areas of open space and woodland, such as near the Nant y Ddraenen stream. Its landscape is characterised by the steep valley sides typical of this part of South Wales.
