Duffryn

Duffryn (Welsh: Dyffryn) is a large housing estate in the southwest of the city of Newport, south Wales comprising a large portion of the Tredegar Park electoral district (ward).

Built on land belonging to Tredegar House, it was completed in 1978 and at the time won several awards for its design.

The layout of the estate, as viewed from above, is that of long, curved terraces undulating around a central wooded area.

Originally a council estate, Duffryn is now a mix of private ownership and Newport City Homes RSL (Registered Social Landlord) properties.

It was won by a consortium committed to the theories of planning devised in the architecture department of Cambridge University in the 1960s.
