Treboeth (pronounced: tree-both) is a suburb and historical village in the Mynydd-Bach and Penderry wards of Swansea, Wales.
Gwyrosydd Primary School and Welsh language primary school Ysgol Gynradd Gymraeg Tirdeunaw are in Treboeth. Gwyrosydd was the bardic name of Treboeth-born Daniel James, author of the Welsh language hymn Calon Lân, which is often sung in rugby matches, Welsh religious ceremonies and other events.[1]
National Cycle Route 43 from Swansea to Builth Wells passes through the village. The village is home to several places of worship including Caersalem Chapel, St Albans,[2] Treboeth Gospel Hall and Mynyddbach Chapel,[3] as well as the listed Cwmgelli Cemetery.
