St Peter's Church, Old Cogan (6)

The tiny stone church of St Peter is one of the oldest buildings in Penarth and is mainly a 12th century building, but its origins go back to the 6th century. In the 19th century it was a ruin, but in the 1880s the Marquis of Bute had it restored. Its features include a Norman arch, herringbone stonework, a tudor porch and an elaborate reredo. A stone outside is the base of what was once a cross. It stands next to the site of a medieval village.
