The Afon Angell is a river in Gwynedd, Mid Wales.

From its source on the eastern flank of Mynydd Dolgoed, it flows eastwards, joining the Afon Dyfi at the small village of Aberangell. The river was known for its salmon and trout fishing in the Victoria era. A number of slate mines were once found along its length, linked to Aberangell by the Hendre-Ddu Tramway.
