Landmarks
St David's Church and related buildings The church, dedicated to St David, is remarkable for the simplicity of its architecture, and displays evident features of a very remote antiquity: an elegant mural tablet of white marble, to the memory of the late David Lewis, Esq., of Hênllan and his youngest daughter, which were put up in the chancel by his widow c.1830. It was restored in 1861 and the tall western bellcote was added in 1891 by G. E. Halliday. It was still in the possession of the Protheroe-Beynon family in 1959. Hênllan, demolished in 1957, was an Italianate stuccoed mansion about to the west, built in 1854 for a John L. G. P. Lewis, replacing an earlier house. == Notable people ==
