St Mary and St Nicholas Church, Beaumaris, is a fourteenth century Grade I listed building in Beaumaris, Anglesey, Wales.

History

The church was founded around 1330 to serve the new town.

Description

It retains a 14th-century decorated nave, with four-bay arcades,[1] although the chancel was rebuilt around 1500 in Perpendicular style.[1][2] The west tower is of four stages, with a battlemented parapet.[2] The upper section was remodelled in the early 19th century.[2] The north vestry and south porch are probably nineteenth century.[2] The exterior is mainly Perpendicular.[1]

There are sixteenth century chancel stalls, also the coffin and lid of Joan, wife of Llywelyn ab Iorwerth and illegitimate daughter of King John.[2][3] There are late fifteenth to early sixteenth century misericords, although with eight 1902 replacements.[2] It is likely the old misericords came from the friary at Llan-faes.[1] The church also contains the tomb of William Bulkeley, (died c. 1490), deputy constable of the castle, and of his wife.[1] This is made of Midlands alabaster. A number of monuments to leading seventeenth century Establishment figures adorn the chancel east wall.

St Mary's and St Nicholas's is located in a large churchyard, with Church Street to the east and Steeple Lane to the west.[4]
