Two rare canopied Jacobean graves in the churchyard at Dyserth. One of these is dated 1676. Inside the church, there is a brass plaque which refers to these tombs - "Beneath the canopied tombstones in the adjoining Churchyard are interred the remains of many generations of the ancient family of Hughes of Llewerllyd in this parish - descended in the male line from Prince Cadwalladr second son of Griffith ab Cynan - King of North Wales AD 1079-1130".
