About

New Tredegar ward lies within the Caerphilly county borough, centred around the town of the same name in the Sirhowy Valley. The area is shaped by its industrial past, with the landscape bearing the marks of former coal mining activity. Residential streets are arranged on the valley slopes, with the main A469 road following the river corridor. The local economy has transitioned from its historical reliance on heavy industry.

The community is served by local schools, shops, and amenities along the main thoroughfare. Parc Sirhowy provides a significant green space along the river, featuring walking paths and playing fields. The ward's history is reflected in landmarks like the former Tredegar Arms Hotel and the architectural style of its terraced housing. It forms a distinct part of the wider Rhymney Valley area.
