Llandenny (Welsh: Llandenni or, lesser used, Mathenni) is a village in Monmouthshire, south east Wales. Llandenny is located three miles south of Raglan and three miles north of Usk.[1]
History and amenities
The little village of Llandenny is just a few houses, a
A449
, passes close to the village.
The Raglan Arms was named for
Cefn Tilla Court until it was sold in 2015, following the death of Fitzroy Somerset
in 2010. A landlord of the pub in the 1930s was Frank Wake who catered nearly always for the farm labourers and not the gentry so it became a 'thorn in the flesh' of the Raglan family.
The nearby Llandenny railway station building (photographed) existed for many years until it was converted into a residential property. It included a ground frame signal box on the platform, a cattle dock and small goods sidings. It stood on the Coleford, Monmouth, Usk and Pontypool Railway line and closed in 1959.
