About

Moriah and Pontlottyn ward lies within the steep-sided valleys of the Rhymney Valley. The area is shaped by its industrial past, with terraced housing climbing the hillsides. The landscape is dominated by the prominent ridge of Mynydd Eglwysilan to the east, which provides a distinct backdrop. The community is closely connected to the B4254 road, which runs through the valley floor.

The ward contains the distinct settlements of Pontlottyn and Moriah, separated by open green space. A notable local feature is the Grade II listed Pontlottyn Railway Viaduct, a stone structure crossing the valley. The area includes several community facilities and sports fields, with the surrounding hillsides offering accessible walking routes directly from the residential streets.
