Cardigan is an ancient town situated on a hill overlooking the Teifi estuary, and dates back to the 11th century when it served as a stronghold of the Welsh prince Gruffydd ap Rhys. It has a long history of maritime trading – the harbour was the major destination for goods and materials from Ireland, France, Portugal and Spain – as well as a number of well-known attractions such as the 12th century Cilgerran Castle, the Gwbert Gardens, the Teifi Marshes National Nature Reserve and the Cardigan River and Estuary Walk.
The SA47 postcode also covers several villages and hamlets, including Blaenporth which has a sandy beach and views over Cardigan to the nearby peaks of Allt Seren and Allt Peng; Blaenpenal, a picturesque settlement of 19th century cottages and farms situated at the head of the Teifi valley; Cilgerran with its Norman Motte overlooking the River Teifi; Crymych which is home to the largest Welsh-language college in Wales; and Felindre which is known for its cider apples and waterfalls.
Additionally, the SA47 postcode encompasses the villages of Llanfyrnach, a largely rural community consisting of several farms; Llanfallteg, situated in the highlands of the River Teifi and with the ruins of a 12th century Norman castle; Penparcau, a former woollen weaving centre; Rhoshill, set along the Northern slopes of the Teifi valley; Trereife, the birthplace of Sir John Rogers; and Ystwyth, an ancient settlement close to the Camarthenshire border.
Each of the villages and hamlets within the SA47 postcode offer something different, from the sandy beaches and castles of Cardigan to the waterfalls and walking trails of the Teifi Valley. These picturesque towns and villages are ideal for days out, local attractions, cycling and fishing, and make for a unique and enjoyable experience for anyone visiting the area.

Deciphering Crime Rates - a Deep Dive Into UK Postcode Analysis
Ever wondered about the crime rate in your UK postcode? You're not alone. We've dug deep into the data, uncovering trends and patterns that'll make your head spin.
Death of the High Street?
The BBC reports that despite councils' attempts to kurb them, the UK's high streets have seen a huge growth in fast food outlets. Could this mark the death knell for the Great British high street, and what can we do about it to halt its decline?
Discrimination by Postcode
You really couldn't make it up, could you? Some of the country's most vulnerable people are missing out on their weekly £25 Cold Weather Payment, just because the system that's in operation is discriminating against them because payments are based on postcode, rather than geographic location.
The Redesign is Underway
Well, the current website was absolutely in dire need of a good redesign - from the ground up. So I set out to pull it all apart and get it up and running again to become the most comprehensive guide to every postcode in the UK. And it's been a long, tough job from start to finish - and quite possibly the biggest project I've ever undertaken.
