St Illtyd's, Ilston, Gower

Religious

St Illtyd's Church, Oxwich, Gower

The restoration of the external fabric was completed in July 2002. The building was suffering from extensive water penetration and the solution was to apply a traditional lime mortar with a bagged finished coated with a breathable microsilicate paint. Historically the church had a lime washed finish and the building now looks much as it would have in medieval times.

The cost was £85,000 and was grant aided by CADW and the Heritage Lottery Fund.
