Cynon Rhondda Taf ... COUNTY you numpties ... NOT country!!!
The old county was South Glamorgan.

Leopold Bloom

The city is county town of Glamorgan, although this role has diminished since council reorganisation in 1974 paired Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan together as the new county of South Glamorgan. Further local government restructuring in 1996 resulted in Cardiff City's district council becoming a unitary authority.

Cardiff used to be in Glamorgan and then in South-Glamorgan but is now a unitary authority and not in a county as such.

Cardiff is the main town in Cardiff county, in Wales, UK..
It has the county of Vale of Glamorgan to the west, Newport to the east and to the north two counties:Rhondda Cynon Taff and Caerphilly

South Glamorgan is still used.

I would go with Glamorgan or Rhondda Cynon Taff if it isn't a county in itself. Surely it is a county in its own right though? Newport is a county, so I would definitely think Cardiff is? Not sure though.

I can't believe how ignorant some people are! South Glamorgan hasn't existed for over 20 years and Glamorgan disappeared as a county several decades ago!!!

Since 1994 (?), Cardiff has been both a city and county, or more accurately unitary authority.

South Glamorgan

Cardiff is a county in its own right, for all those wgho answered Wales, Wales is not a county it is a principality.

Dover Soles

Thought it wouldn't be long before the wiki-brigade hove in view................

the person who said Wales was a principality and not a country is a dumb @$$. Wales is its own country, were not a part of England its just that we serve the queen that's all. Cardiff is the Capital of Wales and the most greatest place on earth
