DescriptionSt Mary's church is situated on the south side of Main Street at its junction with Bridge Street. It was built in 1871 to designs of Edward Jones of Newtown as a chapel of ease to the mother church of St Gwynnog, Llanwnnog's parish church.
It is constructed of squared rubble stone and slate roofs, and consists of nave and chancel under a single, steeply-pitched roof, gabled south-west porch, gabled north-east vestry with chimney, west bellcote with colonnettes, and plate-traceried windows. Stained glass in the east window is by Francis W.Skeat (1961).
The church is now disused.
