Raglan (Welsh: Rhaglan) is an historic village in Monmouthshire, situated some nine miles south-west of Monmouth, midway between Monmouth and Abergavenny. The fame of the village derives from its castle, Raglan Castle, a magnificant 15th century ruin.

St. Cadoc's is a substantial mediaeval church, extensively restored in the 19th century by Thomas Henry Wyatt. It houses some, much-defaced, tombs of the Lords of Raglan. The base of a fine pilgrim's cross can be seen in the churchyard.

The village was an important throughfare in the 18th and 19th centuries, which explains its three substantial inns, The Beaufort Arms, The Ship and The Crown.
