Church (Anglican)

Medieval church with some late fifteenth and early sixteenth century work. Restored 1855-7 by John Norton. John Newman, in The Buildings of Wales: Gwent/Monmouthshire (UWP 2000) p.602 says that the 1924 sanctuary furnishing and stained glass by Camm & Co. are a War Memorial, but this is not so. The work is to commemorate a member of the Hood family of Tredean, a former churchwarden.
