Churchyard walls around the graveyard, Church of St Cynwyd

The churchyard is D-shaped, closely surrounded by the road, and is walled all round, the S quadrant consisting of up to 2.3m high high retaining walls of Pennant sandstone, probably of early origin and now largely C18-C19, with a gate on the S, and a further gate on the W side leading to the large graveyard extension. The S gate piers are of ashlar, with stepped cappings and an iron overthrow with a central lantern. The W pier has an inserted granite panel, a memorial to the 1914-1918 war, inscribed in Welsh, the E pier has a similar panel in English for the 1939-1945 war. The E piers are large, of rock-faced rubble and domed tops, also with iron gates.
