Description
Church thought to have been founded by St Beuno in C7 and later re-dedicated to St Mary after Norman conquest. C14-C15 N aisle is the earliest surviving part of the church, with the arcade of C15-C16, and nave and chancel probably of similar date. C19 restoration. Church built in perpendicular style and consists of a continuous nave and chancel with W tower, N and S aisles, and S porch. Of coursed yellow sandstone ashlar construction with slate roof. Original arch-braced roof survives in the N aisle, along with much of the window tracery. The church also houses an unusually fine collection of C17-C19 monuments.
