San Steffan
Hen Faesyfed, Powys
Er iddi gael ei llosgi yn ystod Gwrthryfel Glyndŵr yn 1401, mae gan Eglwys Sant Steffan hanes cystal ag unrhyw gastell, gyda chroglen ganoloesol brin ac organ a all fod yr hynaf yn y DU.
With its sturdy stone base supporting a half timbered upper floor, this looks as though it could have been uprooted from rural Normandy.
The church was part of a private house for more than 100 years after the Dissolution, but a mid 17th century renovation returned it to its rightful purpose. In 1672, Thomas Francis painted the ceiling of the restored chancel with a stylised assemblage of clouds, angels and scrolls bearing biblical texts.
Also of interest is the ornate gilded Victorian triptych above the altar.
