==History== thumb|left|Church of St Oudoceus, Llandogo|Church of St Oudoceus The village derives its name from St Euddogwy (Oudoceus), the third Bishop of Llandaff, who is said to have lived in the area in the sixth or seventh century. Llaneuddogwy, the historic form of the name, is still occasionally used, although Llandogo is the standard form in both Welsh and English. The church was formerly also or alternatively dedicated to St Einion Frenin, who was credited with establishing St Cadfan's monastery on Bardsey Island off Llŷn. The present church is on the site of a 7th or 8th-century foundation, but was wholly rebuilt in 1859–1861 by John Pollard Seddon. It has been described as one of Seddon's "most high-spirited small churches", with "polychromatic interplay inside and out" between mauve and ochre stone, and "an extraordinarily elaborate belfry".
