Sea Roads is a detached house in Penarth in the Vale of Glamorgan noted for its distinctive Modernist design. It was designed by the Welsh architect Gordon Griffiths for John Gibbs and built in 1939. It is a rare example of Modernist domestic architecture of the 1930s in Wales; featuring typical Modernist details of white walls, flat roofs and a curved internal staircase framed by a full height window. The house was originally created with four bedrooms with accommodation for domestic staff, though it has been expanded since into six bedrooms with two bathrooms. All of the main rooms of the house and four of the bedrooms overlook the garden.It is situated on Cliff Parade in Penarth.The Cadw listing describes Sea Roads as an "exceptionally well-preserved modernist house" and notes its "expressive use" of windows to demonstrate the curvature of the facades and the internal organisation of the interior. The interior was "virtually intact" at the time of its 2006 listing.It has been listed Grade II by Cadw since August 2006.It was for sale in 2012 for £1.35 million, it was subsequently reduced to £1.1 million in 2014 (equivalent to £1,310,317 in 2021).

Lower Penarth Halt was a station on the now completely removed double track branch from Penarth to Biglis Junction, Cadoxton in Glamorgan, South Wales. The station opened in 1888. It had two platforms, with shelters on each, and a substantial waiting room on the 'up' platform. It had no footbridge, though a level crossing was supplied.The Great Western Railway downgraded the station to a halt in 1935, a fate shared by most other stations on the branch. It closed in 1954, fourteen years before the rest of the branch. The platform and waiting room had been completely removed to ground level prior to 1966, and the site to the west (former up line side) is now occupied by bungalows, some of the trackbed having been sold off to private homeowners. The trackbed from just south of Lower Penarth to Penarth town centre is now a railway walk. )

Penarth (, Welsh pronunciation: [pɛnˈarθ]) is a town and community in the Vale of Glamorgan (Welsh: Bro Morgannwg), Wales, approximately 4 miles (6.4 km) south of Cardiff city centre on the north shore of the Severn Estuary at the southern end of Cardiff Bay. Penarth is the wealthiest seaside resort in the Cardiff Urban Area, and the second largest town in the Vale of Glamorgan, next only to the administrative centre of Barry. During the Victorian era Penarth was a highly popular holiday destination, promoted nationally as "The Garden by the Sea" and was packed by visitors from the Midlands and the West Country as well as day trippers from the South Wales valleys, mostly arriving by train. Today, the town, with its traditional seafront, continues to be a regular summer holiday destination (predominantly for older visitors), but their numbers are much lower than was common from Victorian times until the 1960s, when cheap overseas package holidays were introduced. Although the number of holiday visitors has greatly declined, the town retains a substantial retired population, representing over 24% of residents, but Penarth is now predominantly a dormitory town for Cardiff commuters. The town's population was recorded as 20,396 in the United Kingdom Census 2001. The built-up area had a population of 27,226, but this figure does not include nearby suburb Dinas Powys.The town retains extensive surviving Victorian and Edwardian architecture in many traditional parts of the town.

Glamorganshire Golf Club is located in Lower Penarth in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales, 7.3 miles (11.7 kilometres) south west from the capital city of Cardiff and is one of the oldest golf clubs in Wales.

The club played a leading role in the founding of the Welsh Golf Union and in its early years twice hosted the Welsh Amateur Championship as well as the Welsh Ladies inaugural Championships. In 1898 the club was the testing ground of Dr Frank Stableford’s new Stableford revolutionary golf scoring system still used today. Although near the sea, the Glamorganshire course is not a links, but an 18-hole parkland course on gently undulating ground at the eastern edge of what is now Cosmeston Lakes Country Park.
