What Good Broadband Makes Possible in Swansea

The environmental case for good home broadband is often overlooked. Better connectivity in Swansea means fewer unnecessary car journeys for residents who can work, shop, bank, and access services from home. Sustainable communities run on good digital infrastructure as much as good physical infrastructure.

Broadband in Swansea, Glamorgan

Swansea is a city in Glamorgan. Swansea Castle was founded by Henry de Beaumont in 1107 as the caput of the lordship of Gower. Swansea was designated chief town of the lordship and received its first borough charter sometime between 1158 and 1184. From the early 1700s to the late 1800s, Swansea was the world's leading copper-smelting area. The port of Swansea initially traded in wine, hides, wool, cloth and later in coal. The city expanded rapidly in the 18th and 19th centuries, and was termed "Copperopolis". In the Second World War, Swansea's industrial importance made it a target of German bombing, and much of the town centre was destroyed during the Swansea Blitz on the 19, 20 and 21 February 1941. In 1969, Swansea was granted city status to mark Prince Charles's investiture as the Prince of Wales. The Welsh name, Abertawe, translates as "mouth/estuary of the Tawe" and it is likely this name was used for the area before a settlement was established. The city is within the council area of Swansea. Broadband needs in Swansea are no different to anywhere else in modern Britain: fast, reliable, and priced fairly — without the mid-contract price rises that have become a frustrating hallmark of the larger providers.

Swansea is also known as Abertawe.
