Coryton

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Coryton is a district of Cardiff lying immediately to the north of Whitchurch next to junction 32 of the M4. It falls within Whitchurch & Tongwynlais ward.

The district contains a mix of early and mid 20th century suburban housing, 1960s council properties and some post-2000 modern developments. Due to the area's close proximity to Whitchurch it has few amenities of its own, although to those from elsewhere it is probably best known for The Hollybush public house with its carvery restaurant and the Village Hotel, adjacent to J32 of the M4 motorway and the biggest ASDA in Wales.[citation needed]

The area is named after Sir Herbert Cory, former Conservative MP of Cardiff

The area is served by Coryton railway station, the terminus of the Coryton Line.
