Church with Saxon origins, bearing witness to the constant use and love by the local community as a place of worship throughout its history.

There has been a chapel on this site since 1835.

Much of this church was built during the 13th and 14th centuries; the tower was built in at least two distinct phases, with construction interrupted by the Black Death.

The west entry through the tower porch into its splendid Georgian nave is an architectural surprise and constant attraction to visitors.

Cymmer Abbey was founded in 1198 by monks from Cwm-hir under the patronage of the local ruler Maredud ap Cynan and his powerful cousin Llywelyn ab Iorwerth, Llywelyn the Great, prince of north Wales.

St Michael & All Angels stands close to a moat and was once the site of a Saxon Village until the Black Death.

According to Pevsner, ‘the stateliest church of its time in the county’. Reordered in 1722 on an ancient site, it has many interesting features relating to its history from then until today.

Lovely village church containing a delightful chancel with its highly decorated ceiling based on the Te Deum.
