Eglwys Oen Duw, Beulah

Eglwys Oen Duw can be translated as Church of the Lamb and it was built in 1865 by the patronage of Mrs Clara Thomas from the neighbouring residence of Llyn Madoc. The renowned architect was John Norton and it's built in the Gothic style with a single central spire which is very unusual for a rural church.

The East and West windows were made by Clayton and Bell and two windows on the South side are by Burlison and Grylls. These latter two windows are said to be two of their finest examples in the UK.

Also of interest in the church are two fonts from the former Abergwesyn churches. One is from Abergwesyn Llanfihangel and is thought to be from the 13th century, and the second font is from Llandewi Abergwesyn, and is possibly from the 12th century. This latter font has marks on it which are reputed to have been made from sword sharpening by Cromwell's soldiers.

The church has seen several changes in more recent times. In 1998 the Butterfly Window was installed in the porch in memory of William Thomas Richards of Abergwesyn, who founded the Cefnmaes Charitable Trust in the late 1800s and who bequeathed his farm to the trust.

Repairs and renovations were made to the church site between 2005 and 2012, which were made possible by both enthusiastic fundraising, and from the Heritage Lottery Fund. The community annexe was completed in 2012 with a glass link from the vestry to the annexe to enable community activities to take place in this new modern facility..

In !999 another beautiful stained glass window was added to the porch. The Harvest Window was installed in loving memory of Mrs Phyllis Rees who was born in Beulah in 1897. Both of these windows were designed by a local parishioner and artist, Anna Bessant.

In 2000 Eglwys Oen Duw, and the pedestrian entrance bridge , were both listed as Grade 2* structures.
