is it an actual town or just a suburb of cardiff like penarth is?
Both are towns in The Vale.
Eh?
Aren't penarth and Barry both in the Vale if Glamorgan, whilst Cardiff is in the city and county of Cardiff?
Apologies, just seen Baloo has just posted something similar.
Barry and Penarth are both in the Vale if Glamorgan oops just seen Croesy post that.
You really are a funny guy Gareth.
Funny bones and all that.
Thank you.
Penarth may as well be a part of Cardiff though, we are basically just waiting for Cardiff council to declare an Anschluss.
Sorry, but are you suggesting that Barry should be bombed?
The state of it, I thought it already had been.
Both are independent towns in a separate county as has been said by so many wise people already.
But you are right that both are pretty much suburbs of Cardiff.
Barry is simply a commuter town with some jobs in the town but not many. The vast majority travel to the wonders of Cardiff to work.
VoG prob needs to be part of the wider Cardiff council when the council's change.
Prettier than most parts of Cardiff.The state of it, I thought it already had been.
how come cardiff airport is in barry then?
It's in Rhoose.
i meant how come it's called cardiff when it isnt there if barry/roose aren't parts of cardiff?
I don't know. I suspect it's because Cardiff is more easily identifiable. If you called it Rhoose Airport (some people do) - then people outside of South Wales would not automatically know where it is.
Have you never heard people saying that their 'chickens had come home to Rhoose'?
I remember that Terry Matthews guy saying to encourage growth, south Wales should be renamed greater Cardiff. I think loads of people went up the wall about it. I think all the commuter towns around Cardiff should be part of this as means much better chances of investment in transport etc. Caerphilly, Barry, penarth, cowbridge, beddau etc all close to Cardiff but classed as towns villages in their own right. When people say they're from these places I don't look at them as on a par with Cardiff (or even Swansea and Newport), but compare them to Ely, canton, splott and so on.

Barry is part of the Cardiff Metropolitan area
Having lived for a number of years in Penarth and in Barry, as well as a several areas within Cardiff over (too) many years .. I have to say that Barry was the most enjoyable, by some margin.
But chickens can't fly - so what are they doing in the airport?
That's why they're at the airport. ffs
But chickens can't fly - so what are they doing in the airport?
How many airports are in the towns or cities they are named after? Bristol, Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham even the London airports are all the same.
Maybe they thought it was "Rhooster" LOL
