Llaneugrad is a community in Anglesey, Wales. It is located on the east coast of the island, south east of Amlwch, north west of Menai Bridge and north east of Llangefni, and includes the village of Marian-glas. At the 2001 census the community had a population of 273.

Saint Eugrad's Church stands in an isolated position at Parciau, some 450m south of the Parciau hill fort. The nave and chancel date from the 12th century, there is a 13th-century carved crucifixion stone, and doorways dating from the 14th and 15th centuries. It was restored in the late 19th century. A stone memorial commemorates John Groome, the fourth officer of the Royal Charter, which was driven onto rocks at Moelfre, with over 450 lives lost, in 1859. It is considered by Cadw to be a simple rural church characteristic of the island, and is Grade II* listed. Nearby in Parciau Park, stands a similarly listed early 17th century dovecote.
