    Llangoed Village Hall will once again have a flagpole! With support from the Balchder Bro Môn project, we have designed flags to represent our community, celebrate special events and create a visual buzz around our local 114-year-old village hall gathering place. The flags were designed by students at Ysgol Gynradd Llangoed, community groups and creative individuals near and far. Come see our flags flying! More Info
