The Tree of Jesse stained glass window in St Dyfnog's Church
The medieval parish church of St Dyfnog contains a Tree of Jesse window, dating from 1533, described as "the finest glass window in all Wales, exceeded by few in England",[4] which was originally part of Basingwerk Abbey near Holywell. Nearby is St Dyfnog's Well, once a destination for pilgrims.[5]
There is a primary school in a comparatively modern building, and the 16th-century King's Head public house in the village centre.
An electoral ward in the same name exists. This ward stretches south with a total population at the 2011 census of 1,856.[7]
