All Saints

The gleaming lime washed walls of this imposing church overlooking Exmoor give a foretaste of the wonderfully light and spacious feeling interior, with its slender white pillars and soaring wagon roofs.

Cyfeiriad

Selworthy

The south aisle, from 1538, is a masterpiece with splendid Perpendicular window tracery in the local style.

The upper floor of the unusual two storey porch incorporates an interior balcony from where the lords of the manor could watch the proceedings, theatre style: this was an early 19th century conversion by the Acland family of nearby Holnicote.

Two family members are commemorated by plaques at the west end.

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.

Yr Eglwys Norwyaidd

Bae Caerdydd, City of Cardiff

Anaml iawn y gwelwch yng Nghymru eglwys sydd â chladin pren gwyn – ac mae gan yr Eglwys Norwyaidd stori unigryw i’w hadrodd, yn ogystal â chysylltiad ag un o hoff awduron plant y byd: Roald Dahl.

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.
