Llanfair Penrhys
The village of Penrhys that exists today was developed from 1966 as a new council housing estate.
Though a church had been promised, none was built. Worshippers included a small group who gathered in the disused shop of the Community Centre and a few Pentecostalists who met in a flat.
Llanfair Penrhys or Penrhys Uniting Church opened in 1992, the culmination of ecumenical effort to serve an isolated hilltop community with few shops, few recreational facilities and high unemployment.

Penrhys Partnership office, Penrhys
The office is in the Y Ffynon Centre. The Penrhys Partnership website states that the Penrhys Partnership has been at the forefront of community empowerment over the last twenty-two years providing a range of programmes and priorities to address the imbalance in today’s socially excluded society.

Woody's general store and post office, Y Ffynon Centre, Penrhys
In late March 2015, there is nothing on the exterior of Woody's general store
to show that it contains a post office counter, so I was surprised to find that
it is shown on the Post Office's website branch finder in April 2015.

Heol-y-Waun houses, Penrhys
At a height of 330 metres (1,080 ft) above sea level. One local website describes Penrhys as
"set on a hillside where it seems to rain horizontally".
I was fortunate to visit the village on a fine day!
