Church of St Garmon

The Church of St Garmon is a building of mixed dates and styles, constructed primarily of squared green rubble stone with limestone dressings and a slate roof. The main body of the church, or nave, comprises three bays built in the Early English style, featuring two-light plate tracery windows, offsetting buttresses, an ashlar eaves course, and coped gables. Attached to the east end is a narrow chancel of similar materials, with a three-light plate tracery east window, and an added organ chamber to the north, with a heating chamber located below. A vestry, also an addition, is set at a right angle to the south. A later tower, built of darker stone, dominates the west end, incorporating an entrance porch within the tall lower stage, and a bell stage above a limestone string course. The tower has angle buttresses. The west door comprises two chamfered orders and two trefoil-headed lancets above. A plain, imposing broach spire, topped with a terminal cross, rises from the tower. A small stair tower sits in the northeast angle, featuring a shouldered external door and an octagonal top. A clock face is positioned on three sides of the tower, bearing the inscription "DUW A DIGON."

Inside the church, the nave has five roof bays with exposed collar beam trusses. These trusses are characterized by cusped braces extending downwards to wall posts, supported by corbels, with additional cross braces above the collars. The walls are plastered. The chancel is raised by two steps and features a panelled wagon ceiling painted with stars. The sanctuary is raised a further step and paved with encaustic tiles. An alabaster reredos spans the east wall, featuring three carved panels set against gilded mosaic work. At the west end, a raked gallery rests on four posts with pierced timber spandrels.

Several windows contain notable glass. A north window from 1871, a southeast lancet depicting the Good Shepherd by Abbott of Lancaster, and a geometric foliage window from around the 1840s by David Evans of Shrewsbury are of particular interest.

The church contains a variety of fittings, including an octagonal font with inset trefoils, an oak pulpit directly accessible from the vestry, pine pews throughout the nave and oak pews in the chancel, a moulded sanctuary rail with brass-plated iron stanchions, and an organ by Greenward of Southsea. There are three bells: one dating from 1628, one from 1637, and a third which is a late medieval bell recast by Mears of London.

Numerous monuments and memorial tablets are also present. In the chancel, a stone tablet commemorates Mary Jones of Coffronydd, later wife of Thomas Brown of Mellington, who died in 1810, while another tablet remembers Noel Turner of Sylfaen, who died in 1915. The porch contains a marble tablet dedicated to Edward Loyd of Trefnant, who died in 1819 (the primary inscription is absent). Black marble tablets display the Commandments, and similar tablets are dedicated to charitable causes and are set within the porch. The gallery holds a mantled royal arms displaying lion and unicorn supporters. A collection of miscellaneous items includes an unfixed brass from 1700, a church muniment chest from 1758 inscribed with the initials WI and RR (churchwardens), and a 17th-century chest.
