About

West End ward is located on the western edge of the town of Monmouth, situated where the River Wye meets the River Monnow. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of housing types from terraced homes to larger detached properties. Its streets extend from the historic town centre out toward the surrounding countryside, creating a transition from urban to more open, green spaces.

The ward's identity is closely tied to the rivers, with the Monnow forming a natural boundary. Paths along the watercourses provide routes for walking and cycling. A notable local feature is the Dixton Gate, a surviving medieval entrance that once led to a Norman church, marking the area's long history as part of the town's outskirts.
