Penegoes

Penegoes church is on the level northernside of the valley with the ground sloping down gently to the stream.

Only a single habitation, Llwyn, adjoins it but others lie off the main road at regular intervals to west and east.

The Welsh dedication of the church and the form of the oval churchyard suggests that it is of early medieval origin.

The churchyard adopts an irregular form but has been extended at its west end where the original curvilinear course can still be detected as a scarp bank amidst the tightly packed graves.

Reputedly they are on the site of an earlier rectory where the landscape painter, Richard Wilson RA (1714–1782), was born.
