' PREFACE The author published a monograph on " St. Asaph Cathedral in 1896, which has formed the basis of the present handbook. The historical documents are few, and the surviving evidence of the past with regard to our smallest cathedral is scanty at the best. The chief books of reference have been Browne Willis's valuable "Survey of St. Asaph,'' published in 1720, also Edwards' edition of the same published at Wrexham in 1801, and the learned work by the Ven. Archdeacon Thomas, M.A., F.S.A., on " The Diocese of St. Asaph." " Storer's Cathedrals," pub- lished in i8ig, together with similar works, have also been consulted.

  • Diocese of St Asaph Benefice of Rhuddlan & Bodelwyddan Aber
    Diocese of St Asaph Benefice of Rhuddlan & Bodelwyddan Aber-Morfa Mission Area January 2019 The Diocese of St Asaph In the Diocese of St Asaph or Teulu Asaph, we’re • Growing and encouraging the whole people of God • Enlivening and enriching worship • Engaging the world We’re a family of more than 7,000 regular worshippers, with 80 full time clergy, over 500 lay leaders, 229 churches and 51 church schools. We trace our history to the days of our namesake, St Asaph and his mentor, St Kentigern who it’s believed built a monastery in St Asaph in AD 560. Many of the churches across the Diocese were founded by the earliest saints in Wales who witnessed to Christian faith in Wales and have flourished through centuries of war, upheaval, reformation and reorganisation. Today, the Diocese of St Asaph carries forward that same Mission to share God’s love to all in 21th Century north east and mid Wales. We’re honoured to be a Christian presence in every community, to walk with people on the journey of life and to offer prayers to mark together the milestones of life. Unlocking our Potential is the focus of our response to share God’s love with people across north east and mid Wales. Unlocking our Potential is about bringing change, while remaining faithful to the life-giving message of Jesus. It’s about challenging, inspiring and equipping the whole people of God to grow in their faith. Geographically, the Diocese follows the English/Welsh border in the east, whilst the western edge is delineated by the Conwy Valley.

  • St Asaph SJ 0390 7440
    Clwyd Powys Archaeological Trust Historic Settlement Survey – Denbighshire - 2014 St Asaph SJ 0390 7440 105810 Introduction St Asaph lies towards the north coast of Wales, 7.5km south-west of Rhyl and 8.5 km north of Denbigh. The A525, running north/south through the Vale of Clwyd, passes through the settlement, and the A55 east/west trunk road bypasses its northern perimeter. The small town, recently elevated to city status lies on a hill spur between the Rivers Clwyd and Elwy. The cathedral is situated at the top of the hill, and the High Street, running westwards, slopes downwards from it to the bridge over the Elwy. The older part of the settlement is situated on the slopes below the cathedral on the east side of the River Elwy. The town expanded greatly during the 19th and 20th centuries from this small core and housing now extends much further north and south along the hillside and also covers the valley floor west of the river. This brief report examines the emergence and development of St Asaph up to the year 1750. For the more recent history of the settlement, it will be necessary to look at other sources of information and in particular at the origins and nature of the buildings within it. The accompanying map is offered only as an indicative guide to the historic settlement. The continuous line defining the historic core offers a visual interpretation of the area within which the settlement developed, based on our interpretation of the evidence currently to hand. It is not an immutable boundary line, and will require modification as new discoveries are made.
