San Steffan
Hen Faesyfed, Powys
Er iddi gael ei llosgi yn ystod Gwrthryfel Glyndŵr yn 1401, mae gan Eglwys Sant Steffan hanes cystal ag unrhyw gastell, gyda chroglen ganoloesol brin ac organ a all fod yr hynaf yn y DU.
St Mary’s church building is striking, it has a square tower with a peal of six bells and dates back to the 12th century.
Bishops Frome, Herefordshire
The church is an architectural mix of Norman and neo Norman, the church dates back to the 12th century with the square tower, which holds a peal of 6 bells, being 14th century, the chancel dating from 1847 and the nave and north chapel from 1861. The architect was FR Kempson of Hereford.
The chuch is situated in the centre of the village and set back from the main road in a well maintained churchyard. The church is in excellent repair and includes some lovely features. The font is lead lined Norman, one of only twenty in England. In a recess is a stone effigy of a man in a suit of mail dating from the late 13th century. He holds a sword and shield and his crossed legs rest on a lion. His habit is that of a Knight Templar.
The Lady Chapel was refurbished with materials from the now defunct Munderfield Chapel and is used for small services.

Capel y Ffin, Powys
Lleolir eglwys Sant Mair, Capel y Ffin yn nyffryn cudd yr afon Honddu, gyda’r Mynyddoedd Du i’r gorllewin iddi a Chlawdd Offa i’r dwyrain. Mae’n fan lle mae celfyddyd a thirwedd yn ymdoddi i’w gilydd – ac nid yw’n syndod felly iddi ddenu arlunwyr a beirdd am ganrifoedd.
Petrisw, Powys
Cyrhaeddir yr eglwys hon trwy deithio naill ai ar hyd lonydd troellog sy’n gyforiog o flodau, neu ar hyd llwybr troed. Wrth gyrraedd, fe welwch yr eglwys ganoloesol hon yn sefyll ar lethrau’r Grwyne Fawr, yn edrych heibio cwm bychan at lethrau Mynydd Pen-y-Fâl yr ochr draw.
