Llanddewi Rhydderch is a village in Monmouthshire, Wales at grid reference SO351130. It is off the B4233 road, roughly five miles from Abergavenny.

The township of Llanddewi Rhydderch grew around the small llan, or monastic cell named after St. David. St David's church holds regular services every week. The present incumbent, Fr JohnHumphries, has served in the parish since 2012. In 2015 the church was successful in obtaining a National Lottery Grant to clear land at the back of the church to turn into a WW1 Memorial Meadow. The churchyard has a very old Yew tree, which may be many centuries old and became a finalist in Woodland Trust Welsh tree of the year competition[1]

There is also a Baptist Chapel on the edge of the village which still holds services every Sunday.
