Leuan Veddus was a Welsh poet of the 16th century, active in the region surrounding the Conwy and the Menai Strait. He wrote in the form of bardic poetry, which is characterized by complex meter and rhymes. The subject matter of his poetry includes themes of love and nature, as well as the mood and the atmospheric quality of a scene.

The existence of Leuan Veddus as a historical figure is not without controversy among scholars, as he is not mentioned in any contemporary records. However, his poetry has been well-documented until the present day. Several of his works have been transcribed and studied by scholars for their insight into earlier sixteenth-century poetry and their unique linguistic and poetic style. A portion of his works include comparisons of the beauty of the natural world around the Menai Strait to the beauty of a romantic lover.

It is also notable that some of his works contain elements of practical advice to individuals seeking adventure in the military life. This unique blend of love poetry and advice for adventurous endeavors is reminiscent of more traditional Welsh poetry. While more detailed information is not available regarding Leuan Veddus, researchers agree that he holds a place in the Welsh literary tradition as a poet capable of capturing the eternal and the immediate essence of the region in which he wrote.
