Llanmaes (Welsh: Llanfaes) is a small village and community in the Vale of Glamorgan near the market town of Llantwit Major.

Outside in the churchyard is the base of an old preaching cross, used as a pulpit by John Wesley when he visited Llanmaes on Tuesday April 4, 1749.

He wrote in his journal; "At twelve I preached at Lanmais, to a loving earnest people, who do not desire to be any wiser than God".

[3] The original Brown Lion pub and quaint post-office/village shop building, now both private dwellings, can be seen in the older part of the village.

Finally, Llanmaes House is a large, lime washed building sited opposite the church, communal playing fields and children's playground and is of much historical interest.
