"All Saints’ church stands in an isolated position on a very ancient site. The tower and porch date from the fireenth century, and the remainder from an 1874 rebuilding in perpendicular/ decorated style with some Tractarian features. The eight bells were restored and re-hung in 2001." http://caerleonministryarea.co.uk/all-saints-llanfrechfa/

"In the churchyard, near the porch, you can see a Victorian cross on what may be a medieval base. It was commissioned by the Mitchells in memory of John Rolls (1807-1870) of The Hendre, near Monmouth. He was Monmouthshire’s high sheriff and helped establish the agricultural event now known as the Monmouthshire Show. His grandson Charles co-founded the engineering company Rolls-Royce. There are several war memorials in the church, which lost four of its bellringers in the First World War.
