Church (Anglican)

Church built in 1887, reusing some walls from an earlier building of 1838, The dedication was to Gwynlleu or Gwynllen, who can perhaps be equated with Gwynllyw of Newport. Daniel Rowland was curate here and at Llangeitho from 1735 until 1764. Closed and stripped of its fittings in 2005.


Two of the windows were relocated to nearby Trefilan and Llanarth. The whereabouts of the east window are unknown. Photographs of the windows in the church can be seen on Coflein.
