Biographical/Historical note
Parish Councils were formed under the Local Government Act 1894 to have oversight of various amenities for rural areas. In Wales, Parish Councils became Community Councils by the Local Government Act 1972. The local government parish of Raglan United was created in 1935 (by the County of Monmouth Review Order) out of the parishes of Llandenny, Llangovan, Penyclawdd and Raglan. On 1st April 1974 the Raglan United Parish Council became Raglan United Community Council.
