Glandwr is a small rural village in the parish of Llanfyrnach and the community of Crymych, Pembrokeshire, Wales. The village appears on a pre-1850 parish map as Glan-dwr. It is linked by unclassified roads to adjacent settlements and to the A478 road.[1]
Glandwr sits on the River Gafel, which joins the River Taf to the southeast,[2] and is the location of Lammas Ecovillage.[3]
Glandwr has had an independent chapel (Capel Glandwr) since 1712,[4] [5] rebuilt or restored several times since. The current chapel is a Grade II listed building.[6] The National Library of Wales holds historical information relating to the chapel.[7]
The village had a woollen mill at least as early as 1650.[8]
