Church in Wales church in the Parish of Eglwysilan in the Church in Wales Diocese of Llandaff. Part of the church's name recalls the hermit Cenydd (or Kenneth) who in the 6th century established a monastery in Caerphilly, and possibly an ancient church at Senghenydd, named Capel Y Cenydd. As with most references dating back 15 centuries, there is some uncertainty about the precise details. The name Senghenydd appears to be a form of the Welsh for Saint Cenydd.
