St Gwenllwyfo's Church, Llanwenllwyfo

The Gothic revival church features rubble masonry walls, a slate roof, and a three-stage tower with buttresses and arched windows.

The church was constructed between 1854 and 1856 to replace an earlier building that had become too small for the growing congregation.

The church contains 27 panels of 15th and 16th-century Flemish stained glass, transferred from a monastery and donated by Sir Arundell Neave in 1876.

The church stands in a churchyard on a sloping site, located 0.5 miles from Dulas beach and remains active for worship by the Church in Wales.

The interior holds a brass plaque from 1609, an 18th-century bell from the old church, and communion plate gifted by Gwyn Gertrude Hughes in 1866.
