Within the ancient ruined chapel of St Non is a stone slab with a 6th/7th century incised Latin ring cross carved onto it. The stone used to be embedded in the wall, but now stands up-right. Some prehistoric standing stones are scattered around the chapel, perhaps once part of a stone circle or cromlech. St Non, daughter of Prince Cynyr, was the mother of St David. She died at Dirinon in Brittany.
