About

Pen-sarn Pentre Mawr is a coastal ward located directly on the North Wales shoreline. The area is defined by its long promenade and wide, flat expanse of beachfront, with the Irish Sea forming its western boundary. Residential housing, including many traditional terraced homes, is concentrated inland from the seafront. The local economy is closely tied to this coastal setting, with tourism playing a significant role during the summer months.

The ward's landscape is characterised by the contrast between the open seaside and the rising ground to the east. A notable local feature is the presence of static caravan parks situated near the beach, which are a common sight along this stretch of coast. Inland areas contain quieter residential streets and local community facilities, serving the permanent population. The main railway line running along the coast connects the ward to larger towns in the county of Conwy.
