Church of St Deiniol

The Church of St Deiniol is a mainly 18th-century building, constructed of rubblework in fine-grained limestone with some coarse sandstone, with the tower and south porch wall built of squared grey sandstone resembling ashlar. Dressings are sandstone, except for Victorian additions which are Bath stone. The church has a nave, an off-centre chancel, a west tower, a north porch, and a vestry adjoining the north side of the chancel. The nave has two bays, featuring two-light plate tracery windows with trefoil heads and roundels above on the north and south walls. It has diagonal corner buttresses and a coped gable with an apex cross. The chancel has a similar three-light window on its south wall and a plain two-light window on the north side; the roofline extends to incorporate the projecting vestry. The east window is of a similar type to the chancel south window, with a small lancet in the gable above, topped by a coped gable with a cross. The tower appears to be of two builds. The lower stage has a battered base containing a Victorian Y-tracery window which may have replaced an earlier door. The upper stage features small belfry openings on three sides, a string course, and a castellated parapet. An octagonal stair-turret rises above the parapet on the north-east corner, also castellated.

Inside, an open oak screen separates the tower base from the nave. The chancel arch, its flanking arches, and the tower arch date to around 1300. The nave roof is Victorian, with elaborate crown post trusses featuring curved queen struts. The chancel roof has hammer beams and arch-braced collars supporting king posts. The church contains mostly Victorian furnishings, including the reredos, pews, and organ, with the exception of a partly 18th-century font. A collection of monuments, primarily to the Curre family dating from the early 18th century to the mid-20th century, are present; many earlier monuments were removed in 1869. Notable monuments include those of Sir Edward Curre (1855-1930) and Lady Curre (1866-1956). A single bell from 1702 is housed within a 17th-century oak bell-frame.

The churchyard contains a significant group of 18th and 19th-century monuments, seven of which are separately listed.
