St Jerome's Church, Medieval church in Llangwm Uchaf, Wales
St Jerome's Church features purple rubble stone walls, a stone-tiled roof over the nave, and smaller slates covering the chancel with a large tower.
Built in 1128, the church underwent extensive restoration between 1863 and 1869 under the direction of architect John Pollard Seddon to address its deteriorating condition.
The church interior contains three carved green man sculptures in the chancel arch, which influenced significant research on ecclesiastical architectural motifs.
The church stands 500 meters east of Llangwm Isaf church at the end of a lane, with daily access managed by the Friends of Friendless Churches.
The medieval rood screen from 1500 represents one of Britain's finest examples, featuring detailed craftsmanship restored during the Victorian period.
