St Mary's Church

Architecturally, St Mary's Church was one of the most ambitious churches in the county. It is in the Decorated style with a prominent, integral, tower. The church was originally dedicated to St Leonard, until the mid-nineteenth century restoration. The porch, of the fourteenth/fifteenth centuries, has buttresses which display gargoyles and pinnacles.

The interior contains interesting, nineteenth-century, stained glass, including The Good Shepherd by Kempe & Co of 1930–31.

Next to the church stands The Procurator's House, a sixteenth house, now ruined, which belonged to the vicarage of Magor.
