About

Uwch Aled is a rural ward in the county of Conwy, covering a significant area of upland in the interior of North Wales. Its landscape is characterised by rolling hills, farmland, and the upper valleys of the River Aled and its tributaries. The settlement of Llansannan acts as a central community hub within this expansive, sparsely populated area.

The ward's geography includes parts of the Hiraethog moors, with the Aled Isaf reservoir being a notable feature in the west. Land use is predominantly agricultural, with sheep farming common on the higher ground. The area's quiet lanes and open spaces form a contrast to the busier coastal towns of the Conwy county region.
