Llanddewi Velfrey or Llandewi Velfrey (also Llan-ddewi-vel-vre) (Welsh: Llanddewi Efelffre) is a village, parish and community of Pembrokeshire in West Wales. Historically it was in the Narberth Hundred. The village is in Lampeter Vale, 2 miles (3 km) northeast of Narberth along the A40.[1][2] In 1831 it had a population of 710 people.[1] In 2011 the population was 393.[3]
The village is situated in a rich and fertile vale, watered by the river Tâf, which separates the parish from that of Llangain in the county of Carmarthen. The lands are wholly enclosed and in a good state of cultivation, and the soil is eminently fertile.[1]
