Llangeinor is a small village in the Garw Valley within the county borough of Bridgend, Wales. Set alongside the River Garw and hemmed by steep valley slopes, it sits in the classic landscape of the South Wales Valleys with easy road links to the coast and the M4 corridor.
Like many communities here, Llangeinor bears the imprint of 19th‑century coal and iron industries - terraced housing, chapels and a strong local identity - while today most residents commute to nearby centres such as Bridgend and Cardiff. The village is known locally for its community spirit, simple local amenities and access to pleasant valley walks rather than large-scale commercial development.
