Llangybi (also spelled Llangibby) is a village in Monmouthshire, in south east Wales, United Kingdom.

Location
Llangybi is located three miles south of Usk and five miles north of Caerleon in the valley of the Usk.

History
It is named after Saint Cybi, traditional founder of Llangybi church and a number of other early churches in Wales and Cornwall. A stream runs through the village called St. Cybi's brook and there is an old village well which has been preserved because of its fragileness. Llangybi castle ruins are sited nearby.

Amenities
It is home to approximately 200 residents, a village shop, and a pub The White Hart (a grade 2 listed building) which has been opened again since refurbishment which ended April 2007. Llangibby also has a community hall where all the residents can discuss things about the future of Llangybi; the hall doubles as a cinema, as films are shown there from time to time. The church has a bell ringing club. The "The Devils Drop" is a steep hill which many people enjoy riding down on their bikes and which is popular with sledges in the snow. There are many public footpaths where one can walk and also a direct route to Usk, the nearest town.
