Llangovan (Welsh: Llangofen) is a small village in Monmouthshire, south east Wales, United Kingdom. It is located five miles south west of Monmouth.
History and amenities
Llangovan is close to Monmouth, the county town and is set in a quiet, rural area of rolling hills beneath the Trellech ridge. The small village church, dedicated to St Govan, is a Grade II* Listed Building.[1] It is now closed and has a colony of bats.[2][3] The churchyard contains an ornate medieval stone cross[4] which is a Grade II listed building.[5]
Nearby Court St. Lawrence, once home of Sir Geoffrey David Inkin, the High Sheriff of Gwent, is also a Grade II listed building.[6]
In 2007 Penyclawdd and Llangovan Village Hall was completely refurbished.[7]
