Libeneth Road

Does anyone know where the name or word 'Libeneth' comes from and what it means?

I have lived on the road for years and always wondered. I have tried to look it up and have found nothing, but surely it must mean something.

I think this comes from Llebenydd which was one of the divisions of the old kingdom of Gwent. Gwent Is Coed between the Usk and Wye was divided between Is Coed in the east and Llebenydd in the west. See Gwent County History vol 1, page 290
