It's in Swansea.

The river Louchor, (or however you spell it), to the west. Llansamlet, to the east. Morrison, to the north.

All you need to know...

The new City and County of Swansea covers an area of 378 square kilometres (146 square miles), about 2% of the area of Wales.
Extending from Rhossili Down at the western edge of the Gower Peninsula to Kilvey Hill, Crymlyn Bog and the slopes of the Drummau Mountain on the eastern border with Neath Port Talbot; and from Mumbles Head and the sweep of Swansea Bay in the south to the 1200 ft. ridge of Mynydd y Gwair overlooking the Amman Valley in the north, the new City and County covers an area of 378 square kilometres (146 square miles), about 2% of the area of Wales.

The City and County can be broadly divided into 4 physical areas. In the north, the Lliw Uplands present an open moorland feature; the Gower Peninsula in the west, a rural landscape with contrasting coasts and a collection of small villages; the urban and suburban centre stretching from Swansea to Gorseinon and Pontarddulais; and the coastal strip around Swansea Bay.

That's, more or less, what I said. Never disputed that the Gower, and Mumbles, belong to Swansea.

Its swansea councils responsibility to keep it clean and tidy, thats it.

The gower was around for a lot longer than swansea has existed. Now if you can show me the deeds which will surely prove that swansea own the gower I will gladly take it all back. :lol:

Postcodes cover a very wide area. CF postcodes cover Merthyr, Pontypridd, and Cowbridge, none of which are in Cardiff. After 36 years living in Cardiff, (CF14), I'm now back in Carmarthen. We have an SA postcode, but were not in Swansea!

Re: Stressing over derby day??

Bridgend county has a CF postcode... Nowhere near Cardiff..

as I say though.. Who gives a shit? :laughing6:

The Gower is geographically, administratively and politically part of the City and County of Swansea.

Geographically and administratively..

The City and County can be broadly divided into 4 physical areas. In the north, the Lliw Uplands present an open moorland feature; the Gower Peninsula in the west, a rural landscape with contrasting coasts and a collection of small villages; the urban and suburban centre stretching from Swansea to Gorseinon and Pontarddulais; and the coastal strip around Swansea Bay.

http://www.swansea.gov.uk/index.cfm?articleid=139


Politically..

Taken from Martin Caton's website (M.P for Gower)
Some 76,000 people live in Gower and its population gre by 1.7% between 2001 and 2004. These make up around 31,300 households. The Constituency lies entirely within the borders of the City & County of Swansea.

Still think it's just a postcode?

Who said anything about "owning" the Gower? What I said is Gower is "part of" the City and County of Swansea. This I have now proved to you beyond all reasonable doubt.

its always a good test when you speak to the people who live on the gower as i do regularly, they have all been lying to me over the years i guess daps as they all to a man or woman deny being jacks and like as little to do with you all as possible. They can tell when some swansea residents have passed through mind as there is usually broken glass in the car parks..... :lol:
