Origin of the name
The village has never held the City status in the United Kingdom, status of a city and "City" is not a recognisable Welsh language, Welsh word, so its origin is unclear. It may be that the name came from an Anglicisation of ''Saith Tŷ'', which is Welsh for "Seven Houses". There are two places in Wales simply called 'City': City, Powys and City, Vale of Glamorgan.References
