Llanaelhaearn

St Aelhaearn's Church, Llanaelhaearn LL54 5AE

With an ancient church and holy well, the village name Llanaelhaearn recalls a 7th century Welsh Saint  who is said to have been raised to life by Beuno.  

The current church dates back to the 12th century.  It is small and intimate and we are hoping to be able  to introduce toilet and kitchen facilities so that we can offer simple accommodation for pilgrims during  the summer months. 

Like Clynnog, Llanaelhaearn has a holy well which was once an important stopping place for those travelling  the pilgrim way to Bardsey.  Unfortunately, it is not currently open to the public.
