NOTES ON THE OLDER CHURCHES IN THE FOUR WELSH DIOCESES.

BY THE LATE

SIR STEPHEN RICHARD GLYNNE, BART.
(Continued from Vol. iv, p. 289.)

LLANSAMLET (ST. SAMLET).

June 4, 1860.

AN uninteresting church,' almost wholly modernised, and in a poor style. It retains its original form, a chancel and nave, with west tower, and south porch, and possibly the walls are original, but all old features completely masked. The chancel-arch is a sham one. The windows have pointed arches; the eastern one has the original hood, returned, with corbel-head at the apex. The roof is flagged, and looks old. The churchyard very spacious, extending south and west, but not north. The tower is not square.

RURAL DEANERY OF CASTLEMARTIN.

ANGLE (ST. MARY).

August 5, 1871.

Also a church of the local type, but with some varieties, comprising nave, chancel with north chapel, a transept or chapel on the north of the nave, a south porch, and a tower at the west end. The church has been carefully restored, and is in excellent condition, with open seats and stalled chancel. The tower has a rude, pointed arch opening to the nave, and the usual

plain vault to its lower part. It is without stringcourse or buttress, and has a square turret at the south-west, an embattled parapet, a corbel-table, and belfry-windows of two square-headed lights. There is much bare wall. The windows have been restored, and are of early Decorated character; one of three, the others of two lights. The north chapel opens to the nave by a chamfered arch, and by a similar one to the north aisle of the chancel. The chancel-arch is pointed, and appears to be new, having shafts corbeled with foliage of vines and grapes in the capitals. The chancel is divided from the north aisle by two pointed arches of small size, chamfered on a square pier with angles chamfered, the arches resting on a kind of wedgecorbels on the pier. In this chapel is the organ. The chancel has Decorated windows; at the east, of three lights; on the south, of two lights; but that at the south-east, single and trefoiled, has a stone seat divided into two by a stone elbow. The east wall is decorated with colour, and most of the windows have new coloured glass. The altar has candlesticks. The roofs are good, with collars and arched timbers, with quatrefoil in the spaces. The north aisle has one lancet and one two-light window. The font seems to be new, but is, at any rate, on an ancient model, a square bowl scolloped.

There is a cross in the churchyard, restored, on high steps. On the north side of the churchyard is a curious, ancient chapel, restored, vaulted in stone, having an ancient altar. The east window is square-headed, of two trefoiled lights; other windows single. There is a piscina, and the effigy of what appears to be a female. Beneath is a crypt or undercroft approached by a door at the east end.

1 The restoration was executed by Mr. Penson, with the advice of the present Dean of St. David's.

BOSHERSTON, PEMB. (ST. MICHAEL).'

July 31, 1850.

This church presents the usual type of the southern part of Pembrokeshire. It consists of a nave, chancel, south transept, and west tower, with north and south porches of very large size, almost equal to the transepts. The chancel is lower than the nave. Both chancel and transept open to the church by coarse, pointed arches, and the whole church has a plain, stone

vault. The tower-arch is also very rude and pointed, and the tower has a plain stone vault. There is a hagioscope on the south, cutting the angle between the nave and chancel. All the windows have been altered into villainous sashes. The font is cup-shaped,

1 Restored by Mr. Brandon since these notes. The chancel has now an open timber roof. The north porch has been taken down. There is an ancient churchyard-cross with the face of the Saviour carved at the intersection of the arms. (Arch. Camb., vol. vii, 3rd Ser., p. 213.)
