Llanferres is a village and parish in the county of Denbighshire in north-east Wales. It is located 200 metres above sea level in the upper valley of the River Alyn on the A494 road between Ruthin and Mold. Natural features in the area include the Clwydian Range and Moel Famau to the north-west of the village. Offa's Dyke passes close to the village.

The church, which is dedicated to St Berres, was mentioned in the Lincoln Taxation of 1291. It was largely rebuilt in 1774/1775, with additions in 1843. There were further additions, and a major restoration, in 1892.

Saint Berres, (with variations such as Brice or Britius) was a 4th-5th Century Welsh hermit, who according to Thomas Pennant was a disciple of St Martin the Hungarian.
