During its history, the church - standing about a mile south of Bodffordd village - has been known variously as Llan y Saint Llwydion (Church of the Grey Saints) and Mynwent Corbre (Corbre's cemetery). Early documents show that Corbre, an Irishman, was the original patron. Llwydian's name crops up much later and was possibly a legendary figure of local invention. The present building dates back to only 1845.
