Brief description:

Ancient Anglican Church rebuilt in 1885.

2023; "St Madoc’s Church is a small, mostly medieval church, built on the site of a religious community founded in 583AD by St Madoc (also known as St Aidan) in a small, wooded valley near the coast.

Although restored in 1883, it retains much of the 12th-13th century foundations and walls, as well as a medieval font. Stained glass artwork includes memorials from the First World War and a 20th century depiction of St Madoc.

Closed by the Church in Wales in 2022, it remains a simple, atmospheric church with its origins in the Age of Saints.

For Open Doors, the church will be open between 11am and 4pm on Saturday 2 and Sunday 3 September, with members of the local community talking about their fight to save the church, the story of St Madoc and the history of the church, and recent rediscoveries in the churchyard."
