St. Edmunds King & Martyr Parish Church, New Road, Medieval parish church in Crickhowell, Wales
St. Edmund's Church exhibits a cruciform layout with a chancel, nave, two transepts, and a shingled spire containing five bells.
The church structure underwent substantial modifications in 1765, when deterioration prompted the removal of two side aisles from its original larger form.
The south transept, known as Rumsey Chapel, and north transept, called Gwernvale Chapel, represent connections to local family estates.
The church measures 112 feet from east to west, with a nave width of 20 feet and a chancel width of 17 feet.
Within the chancel walls rest alabaster effigies of Sir John Herbert and his wife Joan, along with a knight depicted in mail armor.
