The Church of St Anno stands beside the River Ithon on the edge of the village of Llananno.

[4] Scourfield and Haslam, in their Powys volume of the Buildings of Wales describe the "glorious [screen as] among the best examples of screen-work in Wales”, and the best of the work of the Newton school of Welsh screen-carvers, and draw comparisons with similar screens at Newton itself, at Llanegryn, Gwynedd, and at Daresbury, Cheshire.

[4] It comprises ten arches, with a centrally-placed archway, which support a large gallery with two bressummers (beams) above and below a central parapet carved with 25 figures of "Christ, Patriarchs, Kings and Prophets".

[1] The bressummers themselves are carved with images of "fruit and foliage, the stems emerging from the mouths of serpents".

[5] The church itself is small and simple, constructed of grey limestone with a porch and modest bell cote.
