Talwrn is a small village between Llangefni and Pentraeth on the Isle of Anglesey. It is most notable for the Grade II-listed 16th-century manor house of Plas Llanddyfnan,[1] which stands just to the north of the hamlet. Plas Llanddyfnan is a Queen Anne-style manor house from the early 18th century. Plas Llanddyfnan was owned by seven generations of the Griffiths family.[2]

To the west and south of Talwrn are a number of unimproved fields which have been designated as a site of special scientific interest because of the botanical assemblage supported on the neutral grassland and mire.[3]
