Llanfihangel Rhos-y-Corn is a sparsely populated community of Carmarthenshire, Wales. The population of the community taken at the 2011 census was 468.[1]
The community is bordered by the communities of: Llanybydder; Llansawel; Llanfynydd; Llanegwad; Llanllawddog; Llanfihangel-ar-Arth; and Llanllwni, all being in Carmarthenshire. It includes the village of Brechfa.
The parish contains the church of St. Michael, a Grade II listed building containing architectural elements from the 14th-15th centuries. A Welsh Independent Chapel is situated in the hamlet of Gwernogle, first built in 1749. The fact that Gwernogle might have been the site of a medieval chapel-of-ease is attested to by the placename "Capel St Silin", which was the home of Thomas Glyn Cothi. There is also a Welsh Independent Chapel at Llidiad Nenog, and a Welsh Unitarian chapel, built in 1832, was situated just south of Gwernogle at Cwm-mawr-du.
