context_page_description: Llanfechell is a village in Anglesey, Wales. It is the largest of several small villages and dispersed settlements that make up Mechell Community Council area. It is 11 miles east of Holyhead, and 5.6 miles west of Amlwch, on the north of the island.
  Mechell Community has a 2001 population of 1,532., decreasing to 1,293 in 2011. Village services include a church, a primary school, a pub and two chapels. It is an agricultural area, and has been a local centre for markets, livestock fairs, and had both a watermill and windmill. The area round about has many prehistoric monuments.
context_section_description: St Mechell's Church includes features that date back to the 12th century. It is a grade II* listed building in the centre of the village (location:53.3930°N 4.4536°W, SH369913
  ). St Mechell's Day is 15 November. The thick stone walls are whitewashed externally, while the stone tower has a single bell, and is topped by an unusual cupola. The church is part of the Anglican Church in Wales, in the diocese of Bangor, and holds bilingual services at 10.00am each Sunday.
  Facing the church across the village square is Libanus Chapel (Welsh: Methodistiaid Calfinaidd, Welsh Calvanistic Methodist). Founded in 1832, it was rebuilt in 1903. Ebenezer Chapel, a Welsh Independent chapel, is near the school on Mountain Road. Built in 1862, it replaced a chapel built soon after 1800. Both chapels are listed grade II.
