The Church of St Cadoc at Raglan, Monmouthshire, south east Wales, is the parish church of the village of Raglan. Dating originally from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries,[1] the church was heavily restored by Thomas Henry Wyatt in 1867-8.[2] Built in the Decorated style, the church is a Grade II* listed building.[3]

History and architecture

The chancel dates from the fourteenth century, whilst the "fine, tall" west tower is fifteenth century.[1] The rest dates predominantly from the mid-Victorian restoration carried out by Wyatt. The north chapel contains three tombs of the Earls of Worcester, hereditary Lords of Raglan and of Raglan Castle in the Middle Ages.[1] Mutilated by Parliamentarian troops during the English Civil War, they represent William Somerset, 3rd Earl of Worcester, Edward Somerset, 4th Earl of Worcester and his wife, Lady Elizabeth Hastings.[1] There are also a number of memorials to the Barons Raglan, of nearby Cefntilla Court, including a stained glass window "commemorating the military exploits of FitzRoy Somerset, 1st Baron Raglan" in the Crimean War.[2]

The churchyard contains the "unusually fine" base and stump of a medieval cross.[2]
