Llwyncelyn

Llwyncelyn

Llwyncelyn ( _en. Hollybush) is a district of Porth, Rhondda Cynon Taff.

Consisting of five long terraces and two modern housing developments, Llwyncelyn is the home of one shop and a parish church, St. Luke's Church.

Llwyncelyn is also where Porth Harlequins RFC play their home rugby union matches.

The television program "High Hopes", created by BBC Wales, often contains scenes filmed inside the Nythbran Stores local shop situated near the middle of Nythbran Terrace (often referred to as "the front street" as it is the foremost of three parallel terraces in Llwyncelyn).

Nearby Nyth-Brân Farm was the home of legendary athlete Guto Nyth Brân.
