History
There’s been a Church at Trearddur Bay for 1,600 years. Legend tells us that St Ffraid brought the precious gospel message across the sea from Ireland in a tiny coracle or sailing on square of |green Irish turf.  A  wooden church was constructed on the beach and stood there for many generations.
The site is now marked by a Celtic Stone cross looking out across the beautiful bay. Find out more about St Ffraid’s history

Location

The church is situated on Lon St Ffraid, the main road through Trearddur Bay. It is on the left when travelling away from Holyhead towards Valley.
