Two Villages and Two Churches
Sunday, 18th June, 2017. 10.00am to 3.00pm
From Llangrove, originally a small settlement, we visit Christ Church designed by a leading church architect.
Crossing several stiles, fields and tracks we emerge in Llangarron for a short road section. Llangarron, our second village, has quite a different history to Llangrove. The church of St. Deinst is much older and shows the importance of the village in the past. A short road section, stiles, fields and Garron Brook bring us back to Llangrove.
