	I've taken the data directly from the census, but I'm not overly happy with some of the population figures/groupings. For example, Risca is given as 20,219, but only 11,455 is from Risca itself, with the rest coming from Crosskeys and Rogerstone. There are a few instances like this and I considered separating them, but thought it was easier in the end just to leave them as they are and try and offer alternatives. Let me know if you spot any mistakes!

	Probably should accept alternative spellings for Brynamman, Dinas Powis and Pontardulais. I know they're anglicisations, but then so is Cardiff.
