�A small disused church on Anglesey
The oldest part of the current building is the 12th century nave. The chancel and the side chapel were added in the 15th century. The entrance to the church is now via the chapel, but
once was through a doorway at the end of the nave, now blocked up.
One unusual feature in the contents of the building is a large rectangular baptismal font. It has different styles of carving on each side, include arcade-like carvings on one and a celtic cross at the end. The carvings appear to be 12th century Norman in origin and it has been suggested that it originally was an alter with space inside to hold relics.
Llanbeulan
Font in St. Peulan's
The church contains a number of memorials on the wall, and one stall in the chancel bears a carving declaring it to be "The Seate of William Bold of Treyrddol Esquire, 1664". The back wall of the nave displays decoratively-painted wood boards with the Lord's Prayer, the 12 commandments, and the Creed in Welsh

Owned by friends of friendless churches but still disused.

Having been bumbling along on the way to visit a friend's farm I noticed a church seemingly in the middle of nowhere seemingly in the middle of a field.�� Thinking it looked interesting I abandoned the car in the nearest layby and went back for a nosey.
A quick hop over a rather precariously fastened gate held up only by the staple of British farming - baler twine and you're on the churches raised causeway.

It's a nice peaceful little place.
