Mayals

Mayals is an electoral ward and suburb of Swansea, Wales. It is located about 6 kilometers west of Swansea City Centre. Mayals is considered a part of the larger district of Mumbles, along with the nine other settlements within the community council region. In 2022, Mayals had a population of 2,600, compared with the 2011 census, at which point Mayals had a population of 2,676. Mayals borders the areas of Sketty, Killay, Fairwood, Bishopston, and West Cross. The majority of Mayals is situated within the Gower Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which was the first AONB to be established in 1956.The suburb of Mayals is a mostly residential area, containing Clyne Gardens, Clyne Golf Club, and Mayals Primary School. Clyne Gardens is a 19-hectare botanical garden, which has an 18th-century castle, Clyne Castle, a Japanese-style bridge and adjoining pond, and a large gazebo. The gardens also contain an extensive plant collection, with over 2,000 different plants including over 800 rhododendrons for which the gardens are renowned. Clyne Gardens is popular with local dog owners, with many walking their dogs within the gardens daily. There is another park within the Mayals area, known locally as West Cross Woodland, despite being situated within the Mayals area. The park is next to Mayals Primary School, and across the street from the West Cross Co-op store, a former pub which was refitted in late 2019. This park contains a small play facility for children, and a small woodland. This park is considerably smaller than Clyne Gardens.
