Church of St Mary and All Saints
When King Edward I seized the land for his walled town and castle, the abbey was moved to Maenan, in the Conwy Valley. The abbey church in Conwy became the parish church of St Mary and All Saints c.1283.
The rebuilt church from the 13th century featured the south transept, chancel, nave and aisles, north vestry and the tower. The church was rebuilt in 1872, altering the roofline, windows and other features. Ancient fittings in the church include a rood screen dating from c.1500.
