About St Michael's Church
St Michael’s Church is a Church of England parish church in Croesyceiliog, Torfaen. It remains a place of parish worship and is protected as a Grade II* listed building, reflecting its particular architectural and historic importance.
The church was constructed in the early 1100s, possibly replacing an older private chapel associated with Llantarnam Abbey. Extensive work during the 15th century included rebuilding the eastern section, enlarging windows to admit more light and adding a northern chapel. Its two-stage Tudor-style tower is built from local stone, while the chancel arcade and rounded stone arches date from the early 16th century. E. A. Lansdowne directed a restoration in 1869–70, and further alterations followed in 1921, when plaster was removed from the walls. This work revealed several medieval paintings, including images of Elijah, John the Baptist and a priest.
