Wolvesnewton ((ウェールズ語:Trenewydd Dan-y-Gaer), meaning "new town under the fort") is a small village in Monmouthshire, south east Wales, in the United Kingdom, located north west of Chepstow between the villages of Devauden and Llangwm. == History == The parish takes its English name from the family of Lupus (Wolf) or Lovel, who were lords of the manor in the 13th and 14th century, with their house at Cwrt-y-gaer. According to family tradition, they originated in Thuringia and came to the area with the Romans.〔Sir Joseph Bradney, ''A History of Monmouthshire, vol.2 part 2'', 1913〕 The village is located to the north of Wentwood, which in Norman times covered a larger area than today. Forest clearances under the Normans led to the establishment of several other "new" villages in the area around the same time, such as Shirenewton about to the south. From the 1970s the village was the home of the Model Farm Folk Museum and Craft Centre.
