Eglwysbach is a village and community in Conwy county borough, Wales. The village plays host to an annual Agricultural show and horticultural show in August, which includes displays of local cattle, sheep, heavy and light horses, showjumping a horticulture marquee, fairground rides and trades stands. At the 2001 census, it had a population of 928,[1] increasing slightly to 935 at the 2011 census.[2]
The name Eglwysbach can be taken to mean 'the small/insignificant church', thus it has the same meaning as Ecclefechan, Scotland. Both locations are derived from a Brythonic language.
