St Garmon's Church, Llanfechain, is in the village of Llanfechain, Powys, Wales. It is an active Anglican parish church in the deanery of Llanfyllin, the archdeaconry of Montgomery, and the diocese of St Asaph,[1] and is designated by Cadw as a Grade II* listed building.[2] The church is traditionally associated with a 9th-century Celtic saint, St Garmon.[3] St Garmon was most likely St Germanus (410–474), the first Bishop of Man.[4] It shares it name with the church in the village of St Harmon in Radnorshire (Powys), where the diarist Francis Kilvert was a curate.
