"Llandrillo (or, in full, Llandrillo yn Edeirnion) is a small village and community in the Edeirnion area of Denbighshire in Wales, between Bala, and Corwen on the B4401 road.
It was historically in the county of Merionethshire, and has a population of 587.
It is named after Saint Trillo who came from Brittany with other missionaries and who founded Llandrillo church on a mound next to the Ceidiog stream close to its confluence with the River Dee."

It appears that Llandrillo's only claim to fame is that there was a national interest in 1974 when a UFO allegedly crashed near to the village, and many 'rural' myths have been circulated since.
