Dist:0.7km<br/>The nave and chancel are not exactly in line. According to the explanatory leaflet "local tradition has it that the church was built like this to remind worshippers that when Jesus Christ was crucified... His head leant to one side." The church dates back to the C14 but Victorian restoration swept away the famous box pew used by the squire of Henllys and his family.

Dist:0.7km<br/>Viewed from the south-west. The tower and this side of the churchyard is in SS4589, the rest of the church building is in the next square east. A fine isolated Gower church - shame it was locked!
