Llandogo history
The village derives its name from St Euddogwy (Oudoceus), the third Bishop of Llandaff, who probably lived in the area in the 6th or 7th century. The present church is on the site of a 7th or 8th-century foundation, but was wholly rebuilt in 1859–1861 by John Pollard Seddon. Llandogo was a port renowned at one time for building of the trow, a flat-bottomed river boat that until the 19th century was used for trading up and down the River Wye.
