St Chad's Church, Grade I listed church in Holt, Wales.

The red sandstone church contains a five-bay nave, a two-bay chancel, and north and south aisles with English Gothic architecture elements.

The church, established around 1280, underwent modifications in the late 15th century under Sir William Stanley's patronage and suffered damage during the Civil War.

The interior features a carved font from 1493, medieval consecration crosses, and a 13th-century credence table with ornate carvings for Eucharist ceremonies.

Located on Church Street in Wrexham district, the church maintains regular services and remains accessible to visitors during daylight hours.

Three plugged holes in the north door served as loopholes for Civil War soldiers, while musket ball marks remain visible on the west wall.
