Heath Chapel

Buried in the countryside high in the Clee Hills, Heath is just about the plainest, simplest church you will ever see.

It really is possible to stand inside this gloomy unlit place and imagine oneself in the 12th century when it was built. There are subtle traces of earthworks north of the church which indicate that this was a more substantial settlement in 12th century than it is today. Nevertheless, by 1327 there were only seven families living here, plague exacted a heavy toll, so it is hardly surprising that the church is unchanged.

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.

Eglwys y Forwyn Fair

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.

Sant Ellyw

Llaneleu, Powys

Mae’r eglwys anghysbell hon yn sefyll yng nghanol mynwent helaeth, hynafol yn nyfnderoedd y Mynyddoedd Du, ym Mharc Cenedlaethol Bannau Brycheiniog.
