Trellech dates back to medieval times when it was a much larger settlement and an important community in South Wales. The Black Death wiped out much of the town and today Trellech has returned to the quiet village it once was. Although it still has several attractions, which include:
- St. Nicholas' Church
- The Virtuous Well
- Harold's Stones
- Tump Terret
It is also home to the local school, Trellech Primary School.
