St David's church, Penrhyn Bay

Dedicated to St David, this church was built in 1963 to a design by Roiser and Whitestone of Cheltenham. The church has no tower, but has a tall separate free-standing brick and green granite campanile. Personally, I think with is a particularly pleasing mid-20th century church. I like the five-light windows with a pointed top, though I'm not so keen on the low building in front which looks a little like a public convenience.
