Hiking
St Bridget's is a super quaint church in Skenfrith village, right next door to the equally charming Skenfrith Castle. It was built in 1207, and it is reputed to be one of the oldest churches to be in continuous use in Wales. It is a beautiful church with a large, rather squat tower with a narrow wooden clapperboard effect near the top. It is unique and quite different to other Welsh churches. It is so important to keep this Christian heritage alive in Wales, especially this fine example.
