The oldest part of the present church dates from the late 11th century, and is known locally as Llewelyn’s Church after Prince Llywelyn ap Iorwerth, (Llywelyn Fawr or Llywelyn the Great). Llywelyn had a hunting lodge in Trefriw, and he and his his wife Siwan, or Joan, the youngest daughter of King John of England would climb the steep hill to Llanrhychwyn church.
Joan understandably grew weary of the climb and as a result, in about 1230, Llywelyn endowed another church on the valley floor on the site where St Mary's Church of Trefriw now stands..............
