The Splott University Settlement (SUS) was founded in 1901 Portmanmoor Road, to promote education and recreation for the people of the district, moving in 1906 to the building on Walker/Courtenay Road. It is not connected to the University of Cardiff. Note: That section of Walker Road between Splott Road and Moorland Road, was renamed in 1915/16 to Courtenay Road after the second Lord Tredegar Courtenay Morgan. Shortly after the First World War, the Splott University Settlement building became St Illtyd's College (1923-1964), a Grammar School for Catholic Boys in Wales. After the Second World War the school moved to new premises at Quarry Hill, Rumney.

Splott previously known as Splottlands, was once owned by the Bishop of Llandaff. Much of the housing in Splott is terraced.
