St Illtyds, Oxwich, Gower Peninsular


Almost hidden from view, beneath the looming shadows of the woods neighbouring Oxwich Bay, nestles the church of St. Illtyd. Reputedly, a Christian building has been present on this site since the 6th century, but the current building is a largely 13th century construction with a 14th century tower.
