Conwy

Conwy is a unitary authority (styled a county borough), straddling the traditional counties of Caernarfonshire and Denbighshire in north Wales. It contains the settlements of Llandudno, Betws-y-Coed, Colwyn, and Colwyn Bay, and has a total population of about 100,000.

The River Conwy rises in Snowdonia and flows through Betws-y-Coed en route to the Irish Sea by Conwy Castle.

Conwy is represented in Parliament by Betty Williams (Lab), Elfyn Llwyd (PC), and Gareth Thomas (Lab), though these members all represent constituencies that only partially cover Conwy. In the National Assembly for Wales, it is represented by Denise Idris Jones (Lab).
