Aberaeron (Welsh pronunciation: [abɛˈrei̯rɔn]), previously anglicised as Aberayron, is a town, community and electoral ward in Ceredigion, Wales. Located on the coast between Aberystwyth and Cardigan, its resident population was 1,274 in the 2021 census.[1]
The name of the town is Welsh for "mouth of the Aeron". It is derived from the Middle Welsh aer (slaughter),[2] which gave its name to Aeron, believed by some to have been a Welsh god of war.[3]
One of the main Ceredigion County Council office sites is located in Aberaeron.
