Also, I meant to say that eglwys is church in Welsh.

For Llan, see for example:

  Apologies and thanks Gadget for pointing out my error...I wasn't aware of that.

I'm not sure if you're familiar with Gwyddelwern church.  I've found this photo that I took in 2005. It's only small so I've enlarged it - a few pixels showing  :-\

Add - I'll look out the original and post it, if you'd like a copy  :)

Thanks Gadget.  I have been up a couple of times as Gwyddelwern was were mum and nan were born (sadly both now passed away).  I haven't been for a good few years but will have to go again soon as I think a few photos in some graveyards may help me.
