The ornate south chapel is a fairly recent addition to the church. It was built to celebrate the restoration of the monarchy in 1661 and incorporated all the features most hated by the iconoclastic Cromwellians. The building was paid for by monies left in the will of Colonel Hugh Owen of Bodowen, a colonel in the Royalist army who died in 1659.
