Dedicated to St. Maelog, a Celtic saint
who settled here about 1450 years ago.
There have been many churches on this
ancient site, which is recorded in the
'Norwich Taxation' documents of the 12th
Century. The present one is of Henry
Kennedy design, built in 1848. There is a
12th Century stone font housed in fine
21st Century woodwork, with matching
altar and lectern in a 'Tree of Life’ design.
There are glass panels on the same
theme, designed and etched by Bill
Swann and also a St. Cecilia window by
Burne Jones. The churchyard is of
particular interest as this part of the
Anglesey coast is windy and rocky, so
there are many shipwreck graves,
including a barrel mortuary where
unidentified bodies were placed until
claimed or properly buried.
