A church which stood close to Pennard
castle and whose remains can still be seen was besanded and finally
abandoned at a later date, in the early sixteenth century. However,
the existing church has its origins in the thirteenth century so
which church predates the other remains a mystery.
An ancient water stoup serves as
a font, with a carved Jacobean cover. Laudian dog-rails protect
the sanctuary and an external window has early 13th century dog-tooth
mouldings.
A beautiful stained glass window,
the work of local artists, was installed to mark the new Millennium.
A tablet in the church is dedicated to Vernon Watkins and another
twentieth century poet, Harri Webb, is buried in the churchyard.
The Church is open daily
until dusk, all year.
