Llangristiolus

Few settlements in Wales have a history as closely tied to the parish church of St Cristiolus as Llangristiolus. The community lies in the interior of Anglesey, the island off north-west Wales, rather than beside its coast. The Menai Strait separates Anglesey from mainland Wales, while the island’s northern and western shores meet the Irish Sea. Llangristiolus takes its name from St Cristiolus; “llan” is a Welsh word associated with an early church enclosure. The surrounding area is predominantly rural, with fields and dispersed settlements typical of central Anglesey. Llangefni, Anglesey’s county town, is nearby and provides a useful point of reference for exploring the island.
