Map of the UK

St. Arvans is a rural electoral ward in Monmouthshire, lying on the eastern fringe of the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to Chepstow and the Severn Estuary. The area looks across the river towards the Forest of Dean and serves as a handy base for walkers, kayakers and visitors heading to local highlights such as Tintern Abbey and Chepstow Castle.

The ward combines historic villages and working farmland with a largely residential population, so tourism and outdoor recreation sit alongside agriculture and commuter households as key influences. Conservation of the landscape, a strong local community spirit and a sense of rural heritage shape everyday life and local events.
