Background
History
St Mary's Church was built in 1880 as an estate church for John Battersby Harford of Falcondale, ancestor of the Harford Baronets. The church also served as a chapel of ease for St Peter's Church, Lampeter. It contains a twelfth-century square-bowled font featuring carvings of the Four Evangelists that is originally from nearby Lampeter Church. It is one of a number of twelfth-century fonts - including those at Llanwenog and Llanfair Clydogau - that are distinctively Celtic Romanesque in style.
