St Runns Church, Marown

Archaeology

A record for the old church at St Runn's, Marown.  No record shows the date of this church but it is mentioned in 1193 and the old church was probably built circa 1200.  It underwent significant alteration in 1754 and the church appears to have undergone many modifications over time. In 1853 a new parish church was built and the old church was used as a mortuary chapel.  It eventually fell into dereliction but was restored in 1959 and is only used for services on special occasions.
