Viewed across the A458 Chester Road in January 2017. The Coflein website states that St David's, Pentre Ffwrndan, was erected as both a church and a school close to the site of an ancient cross. Its purpose was to meet the twin needs of a rapidly increasing population. The building on the corner of Croes Atti Lane opened for divine worship in June 1872. The church closed in January 2011.
