I used to see this church from my kitchen window. It's nice to see llannon still standing. I moved here from Northampton so we could be by the sea and the rest of the family down south. It's been 6 years since I moved on, and I haven't been back maybe one day.

Pic 12 features the corner of the house that my family lived in. It's called Bramley now (and has a nice new paint job) but was called Lima House when my Great Grandfather Thomas Davies lived there in the late C19th. The family has a memorial in the graveyard the other side of the church in pic 10.Any local historians about?

I was brought up in Carlton House, Llanon and my parents are both buried in the local church. Sometimes I sit on my verandah (in 40 degrees of heat!)and wish I was back there running down to the beach with my friends and enjoying the warmth of the people that live there. It will be in my memory for ever.

I have been holidaying at Woodlands caravan park in Llanon for nearly 40 yrs best place in the country, people are always friendly, the walks are fantastic and the views unbelieveable, There is no better sunset to be had anywhere in the world.

I came to the village of Llanon some 6-7 months ago. The villagers are all pleasant, nice and welcoming. They are friendly and trusting. This is a GREAT place to live. The Central Pub is very welcoming and pleasant Fantastic staff and great customers. Good village shop. Great chip shop. 2 butchers & 2 garages plus most all other requirments. Fantastic walks and views. Cant ask for better. I love it. Behind the old cottage in Heol Non is a small public garden, one of the most peaceful places that I have ever sat in. Fruit trees, secluded, Perfect for peaceful relaxation. Come and visit.

My grandfather was Ivan Davies who established the farm of Treal Mawr in the early 20th century. He had sold a successful business in London and due to ill health returned to Cardiganshire. My mother, Mary Millicent, Johnny and Alfred were his children. The wife of Alfred I believe still resides in the area as do my cousins Jack Davies and Bryn. I have many happy memories of staying on the farm during my early years and visiting the village of Llanon to visit many of my mothers relations. Many of her relations had links to the sea and I remember my uncle die Grafton who used to toake me swimming in the sea still wearing his peaked cap on and smoking a pipe. Aunty Bessie was a teacher at the local school was a frequent visitor to our home as was her son Henry Lloyd who followed his fathers footsteps as a sea captain.

My family used to live in Llanon 40 years ago. I was hoping someone might know if I still have any family in the area. I would love to get in touch as both my parents have died and I have lost touch with my family in Wales. I came to Australia at age 2 with my sisters Denise, Jacqueline and brother Stephen. My mum was Anne Carlson and my father was Dennis Curry. We also lived in Aberarth for a while before moving to Australia. I'd be grateful for any information to help be find my family and I'd love to come see LLanon again one day.

I agree that Llanon is a very pretty village but I am surprised that Ty'n Cwm, Heol Non is not featured as it has been rethatched and fully restored and is one of the earliest buildings in the village.
