Llanwnnog is a village in Powys, Wales.[1] It is located one-and-a half miles north of Caersws in the community of the same name, on the B4568 road. The Ordnance Survey spell the name with a single 'n'.

The Welsh romantic poet John Ceiriog Hughes is buried in the village churchyard in an ornamental grave with cast iron railings and a memorial plate.[2] He was employed on the Cambrian Railways at Caersws as stationmaster and Manager of the Van Railway from 1868 until his death in 1887.[3]
