The last time I tried to find the Old Church of St. Afran, St. Ieuan and St. Sannan in the fields north-east of Llantrisant, I got hopelessly lost in the farmland of central Anglesey. It is indeed hard to find, although now Google takes you nearly there. It is hard to imagine it at the heart of a community, with tombs up until the first world war, but now long deserted, surrounded by derelict cottages. There is a track down to it:-

Then a gate:-

And a cemetery full of slate tombs:-

The door:-


And a baroque marble tomb:-


One is not used to such remoteness, even in remote Anglesey:-



Fascinating – thank you for the photos.
