It is a pre reformation church medieval in origin
St Mary’s Church is medieval in origin, with its first documentary reference dating to the twelfth century. It is situated within an irregularly shaped churchyard, whose east and north-east boundaries are curvilinear. The e

astern part is thought to be late fourteenth or early fifteenth century, and the walls are constructed of roughly coursed, even shaped rubble stone. The original east window has been retained The octagonal font is sixteenth century and the rood screen dates to the seventeenth century The building was restored around 1857, at which time it was re-floored. Buttresses were added. A west doorway was substituted for one in a side wall. The west bellcote and most of the openings date to this time. The vestry is nineteenth century and is situated on the site of the old north chapel. A reset window in its north wall may be from the former chapel. The rood screen is noted as having been built by a local carpenter around 1877, but incorporates elements of the former rood screen. The bell was replaced in 1749. The church contains mural tablets to the memory of the Owens of Crafnant, descendants of Cynfyn, Prince of Powys. Elllis Wynne Welsh clergyman and author of one of the most important and influential pieces of Welsh language literature was born in Lasynys Fawr near Harlech, served as Rector of this church and is buried under the High Altar.
