Gargoyles and Stone Carvings on the Marble Church, Gargoyles Grotesques Stone-carvings Statues Bodelwyddan, Denbighshire - Wales where to go, what to see and where to stay in Wales

The Marble Church Bodelwyddan is dedicated to St Margaret. The church is built largely of limestone with a 202 ft high tower and steeple that can be seen for miles around. Externally there are many fine carvings including gargoyles and headstops. Stone carvings include a number of realistic headstops, presumably depicting local dignitaries, and possibly Lady Willoughby de Broke the benefactor of the church. This might explain the sad expression on the face of the lady depicted in the carving.
