Nantgwyllt Church, Elan Valley

This little Victorian Church was built at the turn of the 19th Century by Birmingham Corporation to replace the one which was flooded when the reservoirs were created. The purpose of the reservoirs was to provide the city of Birmingham with clean water. That is still the case today.

From where I'm standing to take yesterday's picture, this church is just up the hill behind me.
A lovely church with a beautiful view of the reservoir . What a shame that the grounds around the church are not maintained to look more attractive and inviting !
