St Dogmaels (Welsh: Llandudoch) is a village, parish[2] and community in Pembrokeshire, Wales, on the estuary of the River Teifi, a mile downstream from the town of Cardigan in neighbouring Ceredigion.

[3] The English and Welsh names seem to bear no similarity, but it has been suggested that possibly both names refer to the same saint or founder Dogmael (Dogfael), with ‘mael’ (prince) and ‘tud’ (land or people of) being added to Dog/doch as in Dog mael and Tud doch.

[5] St Dogmaels Abbey is 12th-century Tironesian and was one of the richer monastic institutions in Wales.

The present building is a respectable minor Victorian edifice and contains the Ogam Sagranus stone.

[12] The 19th century boundary changes were partially reversed in 2003; the Bridgend area remained in Ceredigion (as Cardiganshire had become), but the rest of the old parish of St Dogmaels was reunited as a single community in Pembrokeshire.
