Church of St Gwenllwyfo, Dulas, Anglesey



Church (Anglican)

Victorian estate church of Llanwenllwyfo, built in 1856 by Henry Kennedy. Lady Dinorben of Llysdulas gave £936 of the total cost of £1,417, fulfiling her late husband's wish to build a new church. Of principal interest in the church is its remarkable collection of Flemish stained glass panels, presented by Sir Arundell Neave and inserted in 1877. The glass had been collected by his grandfather Sir Thomas Neave.
