Cwmcarvan

Cwmcarvan (Welsh: Cwmcarfan) is a small rural village in Monmouthshire, south east Wales.

There are porches on both the south and north sides, supposedly so that the squires of Cwmbychan and Trevildu within the parish did not have to enter through the same door as each other.

[2] The hill of Craig-y-dorth, 1 mile north east of the church, was the site of a battle in 1404 between Owain Glyndŵr's army and English forces.

According to the Annals of Owain Glyn Dwr, "There the English were killed for the most part and they were pursued up to the gates of the town" (of Monmouth).

[4] The house at High Glanau was built in 1923 for the writer and garden designer Henry Avray Tipping.
