Mumbles (otherwise, The Mumbles – Welsh Y Mwmbwls) is a large village with adjacent headland stretching into Swansea Bay. It is part of the administrative area of the City and County of Swansea in Wales. Historically the area was part of the county of Glamorgan. Mumbles is also the name of a community made up of the Mayals, Newton, Oystermouth and West Cross electoral wards, and has an elected community council. The name Mumbles is possibly derived from the French word mamelles, meaning "breasts", which the two islets at the end of the Mumbles headland resemble. On the furthest islet stands Mumbles Lighthouse. Situated in the village is the ruin of Oystermouth Castle.
