Talbot Green is a suburban town in Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales, sitting on the edge of the Ely Valley about 10–12 miles west of Cardiff and close to the M4 motorway and the A4119. Once part of the wider South Wales industrial landscape, it now functions as a local retail and commuter hub with shopping parks and good road links into the valleys and the capital.
Historically the area developed with the coal and iron industries and has since seen retail- and health-led regeneration; the large Royal Glamorgan Hospital and the Royal Mint at nearby Llantrisant underline its role in the modern local economy. Socially it mixes long-standing valley communities with commuters and shoppers drawn from the surrounding towns and villages.
