Oystermouth Church

A Roman villa once stood on the site now occupied by Oystermouth Church. The remaining traces of this earlier building are now on view within the church, embedded in a slate display on its western wall.

Known officially as the Church of All Saints, Oystermouth Church is the largest medieval church on the whole of the Gower Peninsula and has some fascinating internal and external features, including some amazing grotesques and church bells originating from the Cathedral of Santiago de Cuba, which were brought from the gutted original building in 1865.

in the church's burial ground lays the body of Thomas Bowdler, infamous for his expurgated versions of Shakespeare and the Bible.
