Rumney, Cardiff is a district and community in the east of the city of Cardiff, Wales. It lies east of the Rhymney River, and was historically part of Monmouthshire. On 1 April 1938 the Cardiff Extension Act 1937 incorporated it into the county borough of Cardiff, although it became part of Glamorganshire in the 1880s. The area is therefore a suburban community with historical ties to both Monmouthshire and Glamorganshire, reflecting a blend of local heritage and modern urban development. Its position east of the Rhymney River places it within the broader Cardiff metropolitan area, offering residents a connection to the city while maintaining a distinct community identity. The historical incorporation dates highlight its evolving administrative status, and the reference to the river suggests a natural landmark that may influence the local landscape and character.
