Church (Anglican)

1875-82 by John Prichard at the expense of his cousin Griffith Llewellyn of Baglan Hall and arguably Prichard's masterpiece. Cruciform, with steeple. Decorated style. Polychromatic interior - no expense spared. Work by H. H. Armstead (reredos) Burne-Jones and Morris (windows). Replaced medieval church, ruins of which remain in the churchyard to the east.
