St Peter's Church, off Ruthin's town Square is central to Ruthin's "market town" ambience. There are plenty of reviews about the church here, but one feature not so well publicised is the church's association with Ruthin School. The school was originally established in 1284, following Edward l's campaigns in Wales. The school's history is hard to discern during the following couple of centuries but in 1574 the school was re-founded by Gabriel Goodman, a past student of the School and by this time Dean of Westminster. The school was situated in the buildings behind the church and continued there for some few more centuries until its relocation in the 1890's on the eastern side of Ruthin. Please note my interest in this as an Old Ruthinian.

Lovely church, with a thriving community. When we visited, there was soup and sandwiches, a mother and toddler group, and some older folks having tea and chat. It was very welcoming.

Excellent historic church with fantastic historic ceiling carvings, well presented and a peaceful atmosphere. Fine setting and visible landmark within this stretch of the Vale of Clwyd.

Lonely old people live here where church provides houses. They support each others. Nice day visiting of a historical place in Ruthin.
