Llywel

Llywel (Welsh pronunciationⓘ) is a small village and community located on the A40, about 4 miles (6.4 km) west of Sennybridge in Powys, Wales.

Llywel, occasionally referred to in texts as Llowel, is believed to be the name of a minor Welsh Saint.

[2] Its name was changed when it was granted to the Chapter of Saint David sometime between 1203[3] and 1229[4] It is a Grade I listed building.

An Ogham stone named the Llywel Stone—because it was brought to the attention of the British Museum by the local vicar—, Lewis Price, was found at Pentre Poeth Farm.

It was in the region close to Cwm-cynwal and Pant y cadno just off the road from Bwysfa fawr near Trecastle on the way to Belfont farm Crai.
