A Grade II* listed building, it is the oldest standing building in the county borough.{{r|Cadw St Illtyd's Church}}{{r|BG St Illtyd's Church}} The use of the site for worship dates back to pre-Norman times, with references to the church in a poem written in the 9th or 10th century. The chuch was probably rebuilt by the Cistercians in the late 12th century. Much of what remains (particularly the saddleback west tower and the barrel roofs) suggests more rebuilding around 1500. Further refurbishment was completed in 1888–91.{{r|Cadw St Illtyd's Church}} The church closed for the first time in the 1930s because of subsidence from nearby coalmining. It was repaired and reopened in 1943, before closing again because of open cast mining in 1957. After the open cast operations ended in 1962, the church was found to have deteriorated further and was closed permanently.{{r|Cadw St Illtyd's Church}} The church was sold into private hands after closure. It was eventually acquired by Blaenau Gwent Borough Council in 1984[1] and has been restored to a safe condition. It is open to visitors and is sometimes used as a venue for community events.{{r|Cadw St Illtyd's Church}} References1. ^{{cite web|title=britishlistedbuildings|URL=https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/300001866-st-illtyds-church-llanhilleth#.WibrSYZl_IU |accessdate=5 December 2017}} [2]2. ^{{cite web |title = St Illtyd's Church |url = http://www.blaenau-gwent.gov.uk/8034.asp |website = Blaenau Gwent |accessdate = 2 May 2016 |deadurl = yes |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20140606230211/http://www.blaenau-gwent.gov.uk/8034.asp |archivedate = 6 June 2014 |df = }} }} 1 : Grade II* listed buildings in Blaenau Gwent |
