St Nidan's Church, Llanidan, Gothic Revival church in Brynsiencyn, Wales.
St Nidan's Church in Llanidan is a Gothic Revival church built in the 19th century, with a west tower of red gritstone adorned with sandstone details. The structure has buttressed corners and a slate roof topped with stone copings.
Built between 1839 and 1843, the church was constructed to replace the medieval Old Church of St Nidan, which had fallen into poor condition. The earlier structure was partially demolished to make way for this new construction.
The church is dedicated to Saint Nidan, a Welsh holy figure with deep roots in the local area. It continues to serve as a spiritual gathering place for the community that surrounds it.
The church functions as an active Anglican place of worship within the Church in Wales. Visitors should be aware that access may be restricted during services and community events.
The church contains a notable stained glass window depicting Faith, Hope and Charity, created by the respected workshop Heaton, Butler and Bayne. This artistic piece demonstrates the craftsmanship of a firm renowned for its religious glasswork.
