About

Tylorstown and Ynyshir ward lies in the Rhondda Fach valley, following the course of the river. The area is defined by its terraced housing built on the steep valley sides, with the main road connecting the communities. The landscape is a mix of former industrial land and regenerating green spaces, with the surrounding hills providing a prominent backdrop. Local amenities and services are concentrated along the valley floor.

The ward's history is deeply connected to coal mining, with the Tylorstown colliery being a major former employer. A large, landscaped tip now marks the site of the old Lewis Merthyr colliery, transformed into a community green space. The area is residential in character, with social clubs and community centres acting as focal points. The distinct local accent and strong sense of community heritage remain defining features here.
