This tiny, plain stone roofed building is about 11 feet by 8 feet altogether with walls two feet thick. It is said to date from the Middle Ages, though there was obviously a chapel or hermit's cell on this site before that. Inside, under the altar, is St Trillo's holy well.

This ancient site has a potential timeline dating back as far as the Bronze Age. Certainly pre Christian and possibly an Iron Age settlement, it later became known as a burial place of Saints.
A typical little Welsh church, looking as though it has grown out of the bones of the hillside, with some striking medieval stained glass and seventeenth-century woodwork.
It is known that the present church on the island dates back to the 1400s. It is not known who built the church and why. It is however widely accepted that the church did replace an early church or chapel on the same site. The church on the island is small and has no electricity. Despite this services are still held in the church and it is very popular for weddings.
