It is conserved and open to the public as an example of a rural church with medieval wall paintings and largely intact 18th century interior fittings.
[2] The extensive woodwork of the interior includes a gallery, box pews, benches and pulpit, all of which date to the early part of the 18th century.
[1] At the chancel end the roof is panelled over with a barrel shaped ceiling to provide a 'canopy of honour' of 15th century design, although most of the fabric of this is now of later date.
[4] Also on the north wall, overlaying some of the rustic frames, is a pre-reformation painting of an unknown Bishop, occupying an elaborate 'fictive architectural niche'.
Most prominent, and most recent, is a large skeleton figure of Death, painted in the 18th century, serving as a reminder of mortality.
[1] The classical arch frame on the north wall had the text of Gweddi'r Arglwydd, the Lord's Prayer in Welsh.
[10] Responsibility for Llangar passed to the Secretary of State for Wales (Cadw's predecessor) in 1967.,[9] and a project to investigate and conserve the Church was begun in 1974.
Archaeological excavations under the stone floor, led by Ron Shoesmith, found no evidence dating back before the 14th century.
[9] The building was stabilised, made weatherproof, and in 1991 a scheme of work to reveal and conserve the wall paintings was completed.
