Dist:1.2km north<br/>Cyflwynwyd Eglwys Henllan Amgoed ddiarffordd i Ddewi Sant. Gelwid hi weithiau yn yr oesoedd a fu yn Llanddewi Henllan. Amgoed oedd enw'r hen gwmwd y perthynai iddo. Mae eglwys wedi bod ar y llecyn hwn ers y 13g o leiaf. Oddeutu 1865 dymchwelyd yr hen eglwys ac fe'i hailgodwyd o'r newydd yn 1866. Oherwydd maint y plwyf cynulledfa fach a fynychai'r eglwys ac fe'i caewyd rywbryd yn ystod y 2000au. Gwerthwyd yr eglwys yn 2010. Yr hyn sy'n taro person yw cyn lleied o gerrig beddau a welir o fewn mynwent weddol o fawr. The isolated Henllan Amgoed Church is dedicated to Dewi Sant (St David's)and was also known in former times as Llanddewi Henllan (The Old Church of Dewi). Amgoed (Around the Wood) is the name of the old commote. A church has stood on this spot since the c13 at least. Circa 1865 the old church was demolished and a new place of worship built in its place. Due to it being a small, sparsely populated parish the congregation had dwindled over the years and it was forced to close, sadly, sometime during the early years of this decade. In 2010 the church was sold. What strikes a person when visiting the church is the relatively few gravestones that can be seen within its large churchyard.
