Abergorlech
Abergorlech is a village 8 miles (13 km) to the north-west of Llandeilo in Carmarthenshire, Wales. It lies on the River Cothi on the B4310 road, between Brechfa to the southwest and Llansawel to the northeast.
The Pont Cothi bridge, which crosses the River Cothi in the centre of the village, is a grade II* listed building.
Abergorlech gets its name from the Afon Gorlech, a minor river which joins the Cothi on the eastern edge of the village.
The village is connected to Dafydd Gorlech (fl. c. 1410–1490), one of the poets of the nobility.
