Constructed of Pennant sandstone in the Italianate style, this is where 'Cwm Rhondda', an unofficial Welsh national anthem, was first sung on 1 November 1907.

It was composed by local musician John Hughes, who was asked to write a hymn to celebrate the installation of a new pipe organ.

St Gwynno

Llanwynno, Glamorgan

Mae St Gwynno yn eglwys ganoloesol ar safle hynafol. Mae dwy groes garreg gynnar yn rhan o adeiladwaith y wal ddeheuol, ac yn y fynwent, mae bedd y rhedwr cyflym enwog, Guto Nyth Brân.

Santes Catrin

Pontcanna, City of Cardiff

Adeiladwyd yr eglwys hon yn 1883-6 gan y pensaer J Prichard. Ei fwriad gwreiddiol oedd adeiladu eglwys ar ffurf croes, ond daeth yn amlwg bod hyn yn rhy uchelgeisiol - ac adeiladwyd tair cilfach cyntaf corff yr eglwys yn unig.

St Paul

Grangetown, City of Cardiff

Mae gwaith y pensaer John Coates Carter yn gyfrinach sydd wedi ei chadw’n ddiogel. Mae ei adeiladau’n ymgorffori y Mudiad Celfyddyd a Chrefft ar ddechrau’r ugeinfed ganrif – a dywedir bod eglwys St Paul ymhlith y gorau o’i eglwysi cynnar sydd wedi goroesi.
