A little gem in Anglesey - Din LLigwy hut group, an amazing 3rd -4th century settlement that few people have heard of or visited!
/Din LLigwy hut group is an amazing 3rd -4th century settlement that few people have heard of or visited! The foundations of two round huts and several rectangular buildings surrounded by a five feet high stone wall. The whole thing covers an area of approximately half an acre and is situated on a low hill that once had good views over Anglesey but now is partly secluded by a small wood. This is an incredible site when considering all of the buildings on view. All of it can be explored in a very peaceful part of the countryside. In our opinion, if this was in mainland Wales or in a populated area elsewhere in Britain, this large archaeological site would be a very popular tourist destination with an exhibition centre and and an entrance fee.

St Teilo’s Church, now lovingly re-erected within the open-air precinct of St Fagan’s Museum of Welsh Life, is a remarkable testament to Wales’s medieval and 16th century heritage. Originally constructed in the early 16th century, this humble parish church was painstakingly dismantled, transported, and restored to its former glory — not least its dazzling wall paintings, which have been carefully recreated with scholarly precision. These vivid murals, brought back to life through meticulous craftsmanship, offer visitors a rare window into the devotional art and storytelling of the late medieval period. Stepping inside St Teilo’s, you’re transported back half a millennium, immersed in a world where faith, community, and artistic expression converged on plastered walls that still speak with vibrant colour and enduring power.
