This amazing church has a tower which leans at an angle greater than the Leaning Tower of Pisa, caused by subsidence in the surrounding area. It is situated on the edge of the village of Cwmyoy, in the valley of the river Honddu, with picturesque hills on either side, near Abergavenny. The church itself is an ancient building of stone in the Gothic style, consisting of chancel, nave, south porch and an embattled western tower containing 6 bells, dating from 1672. It is open for visitors during daylight hours.
