What is "blaenwaun"

Blaenwaun is a small village in Carmarthenshire, Wales. It is one of the five villages of Llanwinio parish, in the diocese of St. David's. It lies 220m above sea level, making it one of the highest villages in the West Wales peninsula.

The village features a free house, The Lamb Inn (Tafarn Yr Oen in Welsh), a Land Rover garage, a caravan park and a honey farm. There is a phone box and a children's play area owned by Llanwino Community Council. The village's Moreia Welsh Independent Chapel was built in 1828 and remodelled in 1885.

It was previously home to the smallest post office in Wales, a 5m by 2.9m brick structure built in 1936 which was moved to St Fagans National History Museum, near Cardiff, in 1992. A mobile post office van now visits the village twice a week.

Dyffryn Brodyn, a 5.5 MW 11-turbine wind farm built in 1994, is adjacent to the village.
