Travel Information and nearby accommodation

A visitor's centre tells the story of the 13th and 14th century cathedral, once part of a Benedictine priory. Much restoration has taken place. The carved Norman font is the largest in Wales and has a stone cresset with 30 cups. The choir vaulting is notable.
