Church of St Hilary

The Church of St Hilary is a 19th-century Gothic cruciform church constructed of rubble stone with larger quoins, and covered with a slate roof. A corbelled west bellcote supports a single bell beneath a gable with saddleback coping. The south porch has a coped gable and a segmental arch with voussoirs, leading to 20th-century boarded doors secured with strap hinges. To the right of the porch, the nave features a series of windows: three-light and two-light segmental-pointed windows with cusped tracery and hood moulds, and a two-light Decorated window to the west. The north side of the nave has a two-light square-headed window, followed by a larger and later three-light square-headed window and a three-light square-headed window at the east end.

The south transept contains a two-light Decorated window with a hood mould, and an added segmental-pointed eastern doorway with a recessed boarded door, installed in 1908. The buttressed chancel has a three-light Decorated window to the south and a large, three-stepped, cusped window to the east. The north vestry has its roof concealed behind a coped parapet of tooled stone; its eastern entrance features an ogee head above a boarded and studded door with strap hinges. A cusped, square-headed window is located on the vestry's north side. A vertical joint separates the vestry from the north transept. The north transept has a two-light Decorated window, and a pair of cusped lights in the west wall above a lean-to boiler room.

Inside the porch, the south doorway has a Tudor arch with a continuous chamfer and a boarded door with strap hinges. The main interior has whitened plastered walls and arched-brace roofs; these are four-bay in the nave, two-bay in the chancel, and one-bay in the transepts. The crossing and chancel are paved with a decorative tile floor dating from 1865. The north transept, formerly known as the Penrhyn chapel, has a segmental-pointed boarded vestry door. A decorative tile reredos is located in the chancel.

The lead-lined freestone font sits on a later round pedestal. It is said to have been a gift in the early 19th century from Miss Frances Mostyn of Bodysgallen. The pews have shaped ends with notional poppy heads. The wooden lectern and pulpit are a matching pair and feature blind cusped arcading; steps with a balustrade of cusped arches are positioned behind the pulpit. The communion rail has cusped brackets and a moulded rail. Pointed wooden panels with painted Decalogue, Creed, and Lord's Prayer flank the altar.

A pointed niche in the nave’s south wall, west of the entrance, contains a fragment of early medieval inscribed stone. Opposite, on the north wall, four medieval roof bosses are attached to a wooden panel. Numerous wall tablets are present, alongside a re-set large engraved slab in the west wall commemorating members of the Wynne family of Bodysgallen, dating from the mid-17th to the early 18th century (previously located in the chancel). Another re-set tablet commemorates Roger Mostyn (died 1652) and Thomas Mostyn (died 1675).
