Church of St Llwydian

The Church of St Llwydian is a mid-19th century church built to a 14th-century plan. It comprises a nave and chancel that are structurally undivided, with access through a southwest porch. The church is constructed of rubble masonry with a rubble plinth and freestone dressings. The roof is of large, thin slates laid in diminishing courses of random widths, with stone copings. A stone cross sits at the east gable, and a dressed stone bellcote on the west gable houses three bells within round arched openings.

The southwest porch contains a late 14th-century pointed arched doorway with chamfered jambs and a moulded soffit, and a trefoil-headed light of the same date is set in its east wall. The nave's north and south walls have rectangular framed windows with mirrored openings, all featuring hood moulds. East of the porch are two 19th-century windows, each with three cinquefoil-headed lights. To the west is a late 14th-century window with two trefoil-headed lights, with an opposing window dating to the late 15th century. A 14th-century pointed arched doorway faces the southwest porch. Both north and south entrances are adorned with reset 12th-century carved stones, depicting beast heads under chevron designs, alongside Norman voussoirs. The west gable of the nave has a single trefoil-headed light high in the gable apex, and the east chancel window is a 19th-century replica of a 14th-century window from the former church, featuring three trefoil-headed lights within a cusped tracery pointed arch framed with a hood mould.

Inside the porch, a pointed arched doorway has moulded, chamfered jambs, and an inscribed stone above the doorway bears the date 1845. The nave and chancel have a 19th-century roof of five bays, characterized by exposed king post trusses, angled braces, wall posts extending to plain corbels. The church's fittings are 19th-century. The sanctuary is raised by three steps and features a moulded rail on shaped balusters. A pierced panelled reredos is present, and the pulpit is distinguished by ogee-headed, cinquefoil traceried facing panels beneath a corbelled cornice. A 12th-century arcaded font is located at the west end of the church; it is a circular bowl that tapers slightly from its base, featuring low relief ornament of a series of round-headed arches on pilasters with simple abaci and bases. Above is a band of Greek fret patterned decoration and below a band of lozenge pattern.

A fragment of a 5th or 6th-century inscribed stone is set in the sill of the westernmost window in the north wall, and it reads "... FILIVS · EV ... / NIMA · REQVIES ... / ... E". Several 18th-century gravestones are set into the floor at the west end. A slate memorial tablet on the north wall commemorates Catherine (Owen), wife of Thomas Roberts of Tynyllan, who died in 1783, along with her children. A stone memorial tablet on the south wall is dedicated to Evan Roberts James of Bodwine, who died in 1695, and a brass memorial tablet commemorates John Roberts of Bodwiney, who died in 1615. An early 20th-century marble memorial remembers L-CPL William Arthur Lloyd Jones, who died in 1918. The windows contain coloured glass, with the east window displaying a bold geometric and floral pattern and a banner across all three lights bearing the Welsh translation of John VI LIII.
