Tredegar Park is a large municipal park located near the estates of Duffryn, Maesglas, and Gaer in the city of Newport. It formerly formed part of the estate of the Morgans, Lords of Tredegar. The present day community (parish) and electoral district (ward) of Tredegar Park is a much smaller area consisting of the Duffryn estate and immediate surroundings.

The ward is bounded by the Ebbw River to the northeast, the Great Western Main Line to the east, Pencarn Lane to the south, and the grounds of Tredegar House to the northwest. Duffryn council estate was completed in 1978, since then many new private housing estates have been built around the estate.
