Founded in 540 AD, St Brynach’s Church (or Nevern Church) is a fascinating and beautiful slice of history in this sweet hamlet. With a long and complex history, this church has seen many hundreds of years of social and religious upheaval and taking the time to wander around its open gardens makes for a very peaceful experience.
Its churchyard has stunning, gnarled yew trees which are thought to be up to 700 years old. One of the yew trees is known as the ‘Bleeding Yew’ as it seeps sap continuously for no known reason and the sap often looks red.

Beautiful old church with the bleeding yew tree, amongst other old yew trees and a Celtic cross. Definitely worth a visit. The site dates back to 540 AD.
