St. George (Welsh: Llansansior, sometimes Llan San(t) Siôr or Llan Sain Siôr) is a small village in the county borough of Conwy, Wales and is close to the coastal town of Abergele. It was previously called Cegidog. Close by is the hamlet of Bodtegwel.

Although previously located in historic Denbighshire, and later in Clwyd, St. George became part of the County Borough of Conwy when the county boundaries were redrawn in 1996.

Amenities

Within the village are a parish church, a public house - the Kinmel Arms, and a primary school. The Kinmel Hall estate is also close by, as is the multi award winning St George Private Day Nursery.
