Churches

Llansilin Church is a double-naved church dedicated to St Silin. Much of the church is in the Perpendicular style and dates back to the 15th century but the remains of a 13th century cruciform building are still visible. Its tower is much later, constructed in 1832 and perhaps the only medieval fittings are an early cross-incised altar stone and some of the roof beams. There is a good range of 17th century and 18th century wooden furnishings including a dug-out chest, a pillar poorbox, an altar table, a font cover, as well as the west gallery.
