About

Splott is a residential district located directly east of Cardiff city centre, bordered by Tremorfa to the south and Adamsdown to the west. Its street grid is characterised by terraced housing, a legacy of its rapid development to house dock and steelworkers. The area includes several large parks, such as Splott Park, and is home to the Cardiff City Stadium, which sits on its western edge near the River Taff.

A notable local landmark is the towering former Rank Hovis flour mill, a prominent industrial relic on the waterfront. The area functions with its own high street on Splott Road, providing essential local services. Community focus is evident at The Star Centre, a hub for various activities, and the Splott Market operates weekly, serving as a traditional focal point for the neighbourhood.
