The Church of St Michael and All Angels, Colwinston in the 1970s
A view of the church from c. 1975. Parts of the church are thought to date from the Norman period. One internet source (http://www.coflein.gov.uk/en/site/307572/details/ST+MICHAEL+AND+ALL+ANGELS+CHURCH,+COLWINSTON/ ) notes that the font and chancel arch are thought to be 12th century. Another source (http://www.valeofglamorgan.gov.uk/files/Living/Planning/Policy/County_Treasures/Colwinston.pdf - see also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colwinston ) notes that the church is reputed to have been originally built in 1111. According to this source, the church was restored in 1879 and suffered damage in a fire in 1971.
It may be noted that at the time the photograph was taken only some of its exterior walls were rendered and limewashed, whereas more recent pictures of the church reveal that later they all came to be.
The church is a grade I listed building. It was listed in February 1963.

St Michaels and All Angels, Colwinston
The roots of this church are Norman with the nave, font and chancel arch dating from this period. The tower probably dates from the sixteenth century and was heightened in the late 17th or early 18th century. The windows largely date from the 16th century as well. There was a Victorian restoration and the church was re-roofed, redecorated and given the north vestry for the millennium.
The church is a grade 1 listed building.
