St. Margaret's Church, Anglican church in Roath district, Cardiff, Wales.

The Gothic Revival church features pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and internal walls decorated with colorful bricks and stones at 10 meters elevation.

The original medieval church was demolished in 1868, replaced by John Prichard's design completed in 1870, with the tower added in 1926.

The north aisle chapel contains seven red granite sarcophagi dedicated to the Marquises of Bute, reflecting their influence in Cardiff's development.

The church stands at Waterloo Road in Roath, offering regular worship services and maintaining connections with St Edward's daughter church.

The east window's stained glass, installed in 1952 after wartime damage, presents a detailed depiction of the Ascension of Jesus.
