This ancient church, known in Welsh as the Eglwys Cymyn Church, has been called the most interesting of the local churches. The church's great claim to fame is that it holds the Avitoria stone, a fifth-Century memorial stone to Avitoria the daughter of Cunegnus, inscribed in Ogham, the Irish system of writing with groups of strokes down the angle of a stone.The church also contains a stunning 20th Century stained glass window. It shows the saints associated with the church, including Brychan, king of Brycheiniog, with three of his saintly children on his lap, Brychan’s grandson Cynin the warrior and king; Saint Teilo, David, patron saint of Wales, St George and the Archangel Michael.
