Background
Llanover Village is part of the Llanover ward and is situated between the River Usk and the foothills of the Blorenge upland common. It lies on the busy A4042 between Pontypool and Abergavenny and is bisected by the Monmouth and Brecon canal.

Steeped in history and folklore the village had been a small farming settlement for many centuries. Originally named Rhyd-y-Meirch much of the village now forms part of the privately owned Llanover estate. Llanover Estate was purchased in 1792 by Benjamin Waddington. On his death, the estate passed to his daughter Augusta, who married Benjamin Hall, who later became Lord Llanover. Hall was an MP and is best remembered as Londons’ first Commissioner for Works in 1855 when the clock on the Houses of Parliament was built – the bell being named after him, ‘Big Ben’. Lady Llanover was passionately interested in everything to do with Welsh culture – music, folk dancing, costume, cookery and poetry. The estate provides residential and commercial property opportunities.  

The village also consists of the grade II listed St Bartholomews church dating back to the 12th century located near to the River Usk and the 19th century Hanover chapel. St Bartholomew’s churchyard contains the tomb of Sir Benjamin Hall.   To the west of the village is the navigable Monmouthshire and Brecon canal and adjacent national cycle route 49 linking Brecon to Cwmbran and Newport.

In the centre of the village is the Sir Herbert Memorial Hall, also known as Llanover Village Hall, which hosts activities for the community and provides a venue for lectures, receptions and the annual village flower show and fete. It also has a friendly twice yearly very lively rivalry, namely the ‘Rusty Nail’ competition, with the local pub, The Goose and Cuckoo.
