Fairly sure I did this one on a down day rather than the more typical rushed visit from Valley.

Originally a chapel of ease associated with the church of St Peulan

see: https://www.28dayslater.co.uk/threads/llanbeulan-st-peulan.118453/ for St Peulan

Decalared redundant in 1992.

A chapel has existed on the site for around 800 years. The current building dates mainly from the C16th & C17th with an C18th interior (with modern woodwork replacing vandalised items around 2000). The original font, the oldest item from the site, was removed to another church and the replacement is not locally produced.
Flagged stone floor with an interesting mix of stone, wood bench and box pews. Bellcote for a single bell but I don't rrecall ever seeing a bell in it.
Grade 1 listed due to the lack of modern alteration to the older exterior structure (apart from the roof and two windows in the North wall of the nave).
The lease was taken on by the Friends of Friendless Churches in 1999 and occasioanl services take place.
