Cathedral (Anglican)
Cathedral church dedicated to St Asaph and St Cyndeyrn, first attested in 1143. According to medieval tradition, Cyndeyrn (Kentigern) was the exiled bishop of Strathclyde, who founded churches in Wales. The chancel was restored in around 1800, and a Victorian restoration by Gilbert Scott succeeded it 1869–75.
