| |
| '''Llanbedr''' is a small village in [[Brecknockshire]] two miles north-east of [[Crickhowell]]. It stands above the river known as the [[Grwyne Fechan]] just above its confluence with the [[Grwyne Fawr]] in the southern parts of the [[Black Mountains]] range.
| |
| | |
| The name 'Llanbedr' is Welsh for 'Peter's Church'; a common enough name.
| |
| | |
| The village sits within the shadow of Table Mountain, an outlying spur of [[Pen Cerrig-calch]] on which is perched the Iron Age hill fort of [[Crug Hywel]], from which Crickhowell takes its own name.
| |
| | |
| The parish church is the Church of St Peter, a Grade II* listed building.
