Llanvair Discoed ((ウェールズ語:Llanfair Is Coed)) is a small village in Monmouthshire, south-east Wales, 6 miles west of Chepstow and 10 miles east of Newport. ==History== The village is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 as 'Lamecare'. The name means Mary's (''Mair'' > ''Fair'') church (''llan'') under (''is'') the wood (''coed''). The 'd' at the start of Discoed only appears in more recent versions of the name. The correct Welsh language name is ''Llanfair Is Coed'' or ''Llanfair-iscoed''. The wood refers to Wentwood, which at the time of the Kingdom of Gwent separated the ''cantref'' of Gwent Is Coed ("this side of the wood", as envisaged from Caerwent), from that of Gwent Uwch Coed ("beyond the wood").〔Miranda Aldhouse-Green and Ray Howell (eds.), ''Gwent In Prehistory and Early History: The Gwent County History Vol.1'', 2004, ISBN 0-7083-1826-6〕 The village contains a small ruined castle, believed to have been built by the FitzPayn family, as lords of Llanvair Discoed, in the 13th century.〔John Newman, ''The Buildings of Wales: Gwent/Monmouthshire'', 2000, ISBN 0-14-071053-1〕
