The wider community includes villages and settlements such as Font-y-Gary, Penmark and Porthkerry. DescriptionThe village is the location of Cardiff Airport,[2] formerly RAF Rhoose.[3] Commercial flights began in the 1950s and control passed to Glamorgan County Council in 1965, after which date the airport expanded.[3] The village also has a Holiday Park (Fontygary Leisure Park),[4] some shops, a library,[5] two public houses (The Fontygary Inn and the Highwayman), Rhoose Social Club, and an active Surf Lifesaving Club (Rhoose Lifeguards) established in 1968.[6] Rhoose is one of the fastest growing villages in the Vale of Glamorgan, with the two newest developments being "The Hollies", and more recently, Rhoose Point. Further development of Rhoose Point was halted in 2008, because of concerns the drainage infrastructure would not cope.[7] Rhoose Cardiff International Airport railway station, which was scheduled to re-open in 2003, suffered numerous bureaucratic delays before eventually re-opening in June 2005. There are now hourly train services to Cardiff and Bridgend via Barry and the Vale of Glamorgan.[8]Politics and administration{{main|Rhoose (electoral ward)}}Rhoose does not have its own community council but gives its name of the electoral ward of Rhoose, represented by two county councillors on the Vale of Glamorgan Council. A by-election was due to take place on 14 February 2019. Candidates included the sitting Conservative Party Wales Assembly Member, Andrew R. T. Davies.[9] Davies was duly elected and pledged to oppose plans by the Conservative led council to close the local primary school.[10] Representation has historically been shared by the Labour Party and Conservative Party.
