Tremorfa

Tremorfa is a district and former electoral ward in the city of Cardiff, Wales. It is located to the northeast of the city centre, bordering Roath, Splott, and Pengam Green.

Historically, Tremorfa was an area dominated by industrial land, particularly associated with the East Moors Steelworks. Following the closure of the steelworks in the 1980s, the area underwent significant regeneration and redevelopment. This transformation included the construction of housing, retail spaces, and recreational facilities.

A notable feature of Tremorfa is its large park, commonly known as Tremorfa Park. This park provides green space for residents and features various amenities, including sports fields and play areas.

Tremorfa is served by local bus routes connecting it to other parts of Cardiff. The district has also seen improvements in infrastructure to support its growing residential population.

The name "Tremorfa" is of Welsh origin, with the etymology likely connected to its historical landscape and geological features. However, a precise and universally agreed-upon definition of the name's components remains debated among local historians.

Tremorfa continues to evolve as a residential and commercial area within Cardiff, balancing its industrial past with its modern identity.
