Devauden is a village in the Welsh county of Monmouthshire. This website aims to provide local information to the residents of Devauden and the surrounding area including, Kilgwrrwg, Wolvesnewton, and Itton.
From 1st April 2024 there will be changes to the bus service through Devauden.
Following a successful campaign by Devauden bus users and others on the route, the Council have agreed not to cut the number of weekday services. There will also be an increase of one service each way on a Saturday. This has long been argued for by the Friends of the 65 Bus as it will encourage walkers, tourists and other visitors to use the Saturday service.
The new bus service will be operated by Newport Bus and, unfortunately, most of the drivers currently employed by Monmouthshire County Council will not transfer to the new operator. Local residents, Trevor and Cathy Pilling, are organising a collection to show appreciation to the hardworking and helpful drivers.
The Chepstow Walking Festival will run from 2 to 7 April 2024 and includes a number of walks around Devauden.
The Chepstow Walkers Are Welcome Pathcare team has begun work on improving the footpaths around Devauden.
Come along for an evening of delightful folktales with traditional and original music celebrating the harp in Wales at Devauden Village Hall on Saturday 23rd March 2024.
A vacancy has arisen in the Office of Councillor for the Devauden Ward of Devauden Community Council. Local electors have until 22 March 2024 to request an election to fill the vacancy.

In late 2023 Chepstow Walkers Are Welcome agreed to work with Monmouthshire County Council and look after a section of the county with regards to the public rights of way network.
A group of local residents has recently formed the Llanishen Area Public Rights of Way Project. The group aims to ensure that the public right of way network in and around the village of Llanishen is clearly signposted, accessible and well maintained for the enjoyment of residents and visitors to the area.
