Old Cwmbran
Old Cwmbrân (Welsh: Hen Gwmbrân; also known as Cwmbrân Village) is an area of Cwmbrân, Torfaen in Wales, within the historic boundaries of Monmouthshire.
As its name would suggest, Old Cwmbrân was the 'original' village out of which he 1950s New Town of Cwmbrân grew. Actually, Cwmbrân New Town is an amalgamation of the villages of Pontnewydd, Llanyrafon, Croesyceiliog and (Old) Cwmbrân.
Despite being part of the much larger Cwmbrân conurbation, Old Cwmbrân retains many of the amenities of an independent village. The main high street has numerous shops and public houses. The area boasts a large Anglican church and a Roman Catholic church as well as a health centre and small supermarket known as WHAT! Old Cwmbrân has become the home of Torfaen's first licensed sexshop.
Geographically, Old Cwmbrân all but merged with adjacent Southville, Llantarnam and Cwmbran Shopping Centre. The shopping centre is but a five minutes' walk away from the central village area.
