St Michael’s Church, Tintern

Highlight • Religious Site

St Michael's church was built on the site of an important roman river crossing. There was a christian church here as early as 65AD, some 350 years before the foundation of nearby Tintern Abbey. A medieval church replaced the original church but this was eventually rebuilt in 1846 to what you can see today. It is such a beautiful church and in a stunning setting.

Tintern Wireworks Bridge

Highlight • Monument

An interesting old railway bridge which I believe took industrial rail across the river to join Chepstow to Monmouth. The surrounding countryside is stunning and in the local area is Tintern Abbey as well as a sculpture park and other interesting buildings.

Tintern Abbey

Highlight • Historical Site

Beautiful abbey. Lots of pubs and the like nearby for food but I recommend the Filling Station cafe. The owners are keen cyclists and you can borrow their track pump and buy spare tyres and inner tubes, as well as your flat white and cake!
