Ystrad Meurig (or Ystradmeurig) is a village in Ceredigion, Wales. It lies on the B4340 road northeast of the town of Tregaron.

History & Amenities

Ystrad Meurig was the site of a grammar school in the late 18th century and early 19th century, which trained many Welsh language speakers for the ordained ministry. To some extent it prepared the way for and was in turn superseded by the theological college at what is now University of Wales, Lampeter.
