St Cadoc's Church, Llangattock Lingoed

The church is medieval, of Old Red Sandstone with a stone tiled roof. The nave is quite long, ending in a battlemented tower and turret.[3] The church was extensively restored in the nineteenth century, including work undertaken by John Prichard, following the collapse of the south wall.[1] The church is dedicated to the Welsh Saint Cadoc.

The interior includes a large wall painting of the early fifteenth century depicting St George slaying the dragon. The Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales describes a possible interpretation of the painting as being a reference to the defeat of Owain Glyndŵr by the English at the battles of Campston Hill (1404) and Grosmont (1405), which were fought near to Llangattock Lingoed.[1]

There also remain some sixteenth century pews, which John Newman, the architectural historian, describes as "a rare survival."[3] A timber beam with carved vine leaves and grapes is the remaining part of a late C15th rood screen.[2] The medieval cross in the churchyard has its own Grade II listing.[4]
