Llanfor

Llanfor is a village in Gwynedd, Wales near the town of Bala, in the community of Llandderfel.

There is evidence of an Iron Age hill fort in the immediate area.[citation needed] There was a Roman fort, so far undated precisely but it may have been built during the first campaign of conquest of Wales by the Roman governor Julius Frontinus (AD 73-77).

In the 6th century an unknown monk from Llanfor was reputedly responsible for converting Llywarch Hen, prince of Rheged, to Christianity.

There is a legend that the Devil used to frequently visit Llanfor Church in the shape of a pig.
