Community Assembly of Monmouthshire
Serving, supporting and protecting our local communities
The Community Assembly of Monmouthshire is located in a rural county although adjacent to the city of Newport and the urbanised South Wales Valleys; it has an area of 330 square miles and a population of 93,000. After Abergavenny the largest towns are Chepstow, Monmouth and Caldicot.
For several centuries, acts of the Parliament of England (in which Wales was represented) often referred to 'Wales and Monmouthshire', such as the controversial Welsh Church Act 1914. However, the Local Government Act 1972, which came into effect in April 1974, confirmed the county as part of Wales, with the administrative county of Monmouthshire and its associated lieutenancy being abolished.
Much of Monmouthshire is hilly, particularly the western area adjoining the industrial South Wales Valleys and the Black Mountains to the north. Two major river valleys dominate the lowlands - the scenic gorge of the Wye Valley along the border with Gloucestershire adjoining the Forest of Dean, and the valley of the River Usk between Abergavenny and Newport.
Community Assemblies are made up of residents concerned about a lack of democratic process at a local and national level, dedicated to preserving and asserting our inalienable rights and obligations to ourselves, the Earth and future generations.
