Photography by John Ball - 1.15pm 12th May 1998 (with Agfa ePhoto307 digital camera)
The parish church of St Cadfarch, in the village of Penegoes, is hidden from the main A489 trunk road connecting Newtown to Machynlleth. The church and its graveyard are set in the beautiful Dovey Valley (Cwm Dyfi). Although many graves date back to the 18th century, they are remarkably well preserved.
