St. Medocs Church

Site of early foundation for which bishops are recorded in the ninth century. Medieval church was in disrepair in 1692 and was subsequently removed. Present church nineteenth-century in date. No trace of earlier foundation. In the course of repair works in 1973 a single-light window with splayed jambs was exposed in the south wall perhaps indicating the presence of earlier fabric (SMR file).
