More about this scene
St Peter's stands in meadows beside the Usk, to the left of the A40 and just beyond the western outskirts of Abergavenny. The parish of Llanwenarth was divided into two parts, Llanwenarth Citra and Llanwenarth Ultra, by the River Usk. St Peter's Church was in Llanwenarth Citra. The two Llanwenarths were joined by a rope ferry, which closed down in 1951. From the churchyard there is a magnificent view of the Blorenge mountain. The medieval cross near the tree on the left is still a broken remnant at this date. It was restored ', and it also remembers those who served and fell in the Second World War.
