About

Mwldan ward encompasses the northern portion of Cardigan town, situated on the northern bank of the River Teifi in Ceredigion. The area is primarily residential, featuring a mix of housing estates and older terraced streets that extend from the historic town centre. Its landscape includes the green slopes of Banc-y-Darren and the open playing fields of King George V Field, which provide elevated views across the river and town.

The ward is defined by its relationship to the river and the A487 road, which forms a key transport route through the area. A notable local feature is the Mwldan itself, a specific brook or stream from which the area takes its name, flowing towards the Teifi. The area includes the modern Theatre Mwldan and cinema complex, a cultural hub that draws visitors from across the wider region.
