Dist:0.5km north<br/>Trelawnyd village hall. The inscription commemorating the donor uses the name 'Newmarket' for the village - given around 1700 by a local (and presumably English-speaking!) entrepreneur who had great plans for developing the village. It returned to its Welsh name only in 1954.

Dist:0.7km west<br/>St Michael's Church at Trelawnyd was first recorded in 1291 though the present church building was built in 1724 and restored in the nineteenth century. This 14th century preaching cross stands in the churchyard south east of the porch. The scheduled ancient monument shows two scenes of the crucifixion. The church is recorded in the CPAT Sites and Monuments Record as number 102099.
