Llanyblodwel and Pant

Llanyblodwel and Pant

Llanyblodwel and Pant is an electoral ward in the borough of Oswestry in the county of Shropshire.

The ward covers the villages of Pant, Llynclys, Porth-y-waen and Llanyblodwel, as well as half of Nantmawr and the English half of Llanymynech, and contains the two parishes of Llanyblodwel and Llanymynech and Pant. Despite being in England, almost without exception the villages and other settlements are named in Welsh, a vestige of the area's history as part of neighbouring Wales.

The terrain varies from flat farming land at an elevation of roughly 60m to the east of Llanymynech in the south, to rugged hills in the west reaching an elevation of roughly 310m to the north of Bryn.
