Grade I listed Church of St David, Bettws
Part of the Church in Wales Diocese of Llandaff. Cadw records that the church may have an early medieval origin, the dedication to St David being later, and the original churchyard boundary roughly circular. This building is believed to date from the 12th century and is probably identifiable in a charter of the Bishop of Llandaff who died in 1183. Substantially remodelled in the 15th and 16th centuries. Until 1885 a curacy of Newcastle, together with Laleston and Tythegston with revenues paid first to Tewkesbury Abbey and from the 13th century to Margam Abbey. Bettws was within the boundaries of Tir Iarll held by the Lords of Glamorgan and was a literary centre in the later Middle Ages, with two named 15th century poets, Dafydd Fychan and Llewelyn Goch y Dant, living in the parish. The church was restored and extended by the addition of the north aisle in 1893, the work paid for by Miss Olive Talbot of Margam. The building was Grade I listed in 1997.
