Llangammarch Wells or simply Llangammarch (Welsh: Llangamarch) is a village in the parish of Llangammarch in Powys, within the historic boundaries of Brecknockshire, mid Wales, lying on the River Irfon.
It is the smallest of the four spa villages of mid-Wales, alongside Llandrindod Wells, Builth Wells and Llanwrtyd Wells. The spa was focused on a barium well, which is now closed, but the village is still popular with anglers. The old village is centred around the parish church of St Cammarch.
It benefits from a railway station on the Heart of Wales Line. It lies on Route 43 of the National Cycle Network.
Famous quotes containing the word wells:
“‘But where can we draw water,’
Said Pearse to Connolly,
‘When all the wells are parched away?
O plain as plain can be
There’s nothing but our own red blood
Can make a right Rose Tree.’”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
