Llangystennin includes Llangwstennin Hall, the villages ofMochdre,Pabo andBryn Pydew and the small town ofLlandudno Junction.
The parish takes its name from St. Cystennin (Constantine) who is said to be a son of St. Helen ofCaernarfon (Elen Luyddog) together with whom and with his brother St. Peblig he is credited with introducing into Wales in the 5th century theCeltic form ofmonasticism fromGaul.[citation needed]
The parish is home to the St Cystennin’s Church. It was built in 1843, replacing the delapidated medieval church that was on the same site.[1][2] Although it's not known when the original church was built, there have been records of Christian worship on the site dating back to 338AD.[3] The church bells from the prior church are archived in the People's Collection Wales.[4] 15th century stained glass panels from the prior church were restored in 2007, and are now displayed within St Cystennin’s Church.[3][5]
