About

Malpas in Newport, South Wales, is a mainly residential suburb north-west of the city centre. The neighbourhood is centred on Malpas Road, where a parade of local shops, services and takeaways serves nearby streets. Housing includes terraces, semi-detached homes and post-war estates, with primary schools, a community centre and sports pitches within walking distance. Small pockets of allotments and playing fields break up the housing and provide open space for residents.

Public transport links run frequently to Newport city centre and to neighbouring suburbs, and roads provide direct access to the M4 corridor. Local clubs and groups use the community centre and playing fields for football, youth activities and adult classes, and the ward boundary is marked by a clear change from grid streets to larger crescents to the north. Day-to-day life in Malpas is centred on short trips to shops, school runs and daily parkland walks close to home.
