Churches which are known to have had west
gallery features or connections |
Clyro,
St
Michael |
Included mainly because of the
connection with Francis Kilvert and his diary. |
Llanigon,
St Eigon |
Numbered pews with doors.
The 1857 restoration removed the barrel organ, now restored,
to the west end. The 18th century two-decker pulpit
was divided, one half becoming the priest's stall. The 17th
century altar and altar rails remain. |
