Plymouth

Plymouth ward sits within the Barry community area of the Vale of Glamorgan, primarily comprising the residential suburb of Cadoxton. The area is characterised by a mix of housing, from Victorian terraces to more modern developments, situated on the rising ground to the north of Barry's town centre. It functions largely as a commuter area, with local services centred along the main roads serving the community's daily needs.

The ward is defined by its elevated position, offering views over the town and the Bristol Channel from its higher points. A notable local feature is the Plymouth Arms public house, a historic building that gives the ward its name and serves as a community landmark. The area is also home to several schools and is bordered by green spaces, including parts of the Porthkerry Park landscape to the west.
