St. Mary's Church, encircled by ancient yews, is a chapel of
ease to Llanigon. It is one of the smallest in the country, only
8 meters by 4 meters inside. It was built in 1762 replacing an
earlier chapel, and the south porch was added in 1817. The small
oblong interior has a gallery along the west and south walls.
Furnishings include an octagonal pulpit of 1780, five settles
- one dated 1783 and a medieval font. The lopsided belfry has
two bells, one medieval but recast in the 19th century.
