At the centre of the village of Llangwm is the "corlan" diwylliant - literally translated as Culture "enclosure" - the word is mostly used for "sheepfold", and is apt in this rural area. Llangwm has long been renowned for its cultural traditions, with a male voice choir, youth choirs and folk dancing. The plaque on the right commemorates Lois Blake Image, who revived Welsh Folk Dancing.
