St Anno's Church (Llannano)
St Anno's Church (Llannano) submitted by geoffstickland : The magnificent rood screen, an amazing adornment to such an modest church. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Single cell church built on an earlier curved enclosure in Powys

The Journal of Antiquities includes a page for this church, just off the busy A483 Newtown to Llandriodod Wells road - see their entry for St Anno’s Church, Llananno, Powys, Wales. The Journal tells us that whilst: "the churchyard is rectilinear in shape but appears to be built over and on an earlier curved enclosure, which still shows at the north and south sides, suggesting that the site is an ancient one dating back to before the Norman Conquest".

The Journal adds the church is dedicated to an 8th century saint, Anno or Annu, who died in 629AD, and whilst the church was largely rebuilt in the 19th century, it still retains its medieval rood screen, described by Coflein NPRN 153570 as the "most richly decorated and one of the most complete medieval rood screen in Wales". The church is still a small, single-cell church with a "box pew adapted as a vestry"!
