St Fflewin's Church, Medieval church in Llanfechell, Wales.

The stone church features a western tower from the 16th century, an 18th-century spire, and retains sections of its original 12th-century nave and chancel.

The first written record of St Fflewin's Church appears in the Norwich Taxation of 1254, marking its established presence in medieval Anglesey.

The church bears the name of Saint Fflewin, a 6th-century religious figure who traveled from northern France to Britain as part of early Christian missions.

The Grade II listed building underwent substantial renovations in 1840, 1870, and the 1990s to maintain its structural integrity and religious function.

Inside the church, visitors can examine a medieval gravestone fragment incorporated into a window sill and a nine-sided font from the 14th or 15th century.
