Well worth a visit and thanks to Friends of Friendless Churches in keeping this open. Interesting 15th century cross in churchyard and superb rood and stained glass windows inside. Worth combining with a visit to Aberclwyd Manor on a Wednesday
2. St Dyfnog's Church
3. Bible translators' memorial
4. Rug Chapel

The chapel’s plain exterior gives little hint of the riches within Religiously glorious in glorious technicolour. Never judge a chapel, or a church for that matter, by its exterior. Step inside 17th-century Rug Chapel and prepare to be wowed by its decorative flourishes. The displayed opening times are our general pattern. Please check the Cadw website for specific times and days, including closures.
5. Valle Crucis Abbey

A visit to this fascinating site evokes the lives of the Cistercian monks Cistercian monks loved all things austere. Solitude ruled absolute. Finding this remote yet magical location must have at least raised a smile or two amongst the serious-minded bretheren. Building work got underway in 1201. Seven centuries later and the abbey is one of the best preserved in Wales. The displayed opening times are our general pattern. Please check the Cadw website for specific times and days, including closures.

.......but we persevered and pleased that we did! Slightly disconcerting approach, as if you are visiting the adjacent caravan park. Once at the Abbey entrance there are parking spaces reserved for visitors (but very few) Although a ‘ruin’ as such, parts are amazingly well preserved and the grounds immaculately maintained. If not for the weather on the day of our visit I would happily have spent a lot longer taking in its history and the solitude that still prevails! (Be aware when exiting onto the main road - traffic seems to travel quite fast and visibility in either direction is not brilliant)

The Collegiate and Parochial Church of St Peter is the Anglican parish church of Ruthin, an ancient market town which lies within the Vale of Clwyd in Denbighshire, north east Wales. It is a greater church of the diocese of St Asaph and a Grade I listed building.

I visited this one afternoon and then returned on Sunday morning for the early 'said' Mass. The people were very friendly and the Church is lovely. Well worth a stop to look at it and see the organ!
