This shows the steeply sloping graveyard through which a path leads up to the village. Celandines speckle the grass. A handwritten notice inside gives the information that St Meilyr was the grandson of Emyr Llydaw who was himself nephew of St Garmon or Germanus of Auxerre who visited Britain in 429. The church dates back to the C6/C7, although restored in 1869.
