All very interesting history of the church; it might be added that Mrs Dawson's "Churches of Breconshire (1909) quotes the inscription from the church Bible: "..was deposited on the anniversary of the battle of Salamanca. on which glorious occasion...I added to the trophies of the day by the capture of a French eagle. The Duke of Wellington made me a captain for it.". The inscription is signed by "Wm. Pearce, Lt Col., Knight of the Order of the Han.Guelphic Order, 22 July, 1860."William Pearce has a monument designed by J.E. Thomas, in the churchyard.Mrs Dawson also explains the name of the church (and village):"from the Yspitty or Hospitium of the Priory of Malverne, which was here situated."Wonderful work on the churchyard. Shame that the church, like so many, now has to be eternally locked; it would help also if your website gave service times and if any of the Contact Us' links actually worked.
