Saint Asaph Cathedral. Saint Kentigern built his Church here
in AD560. When he returned to Strathclyde in AD573 he left Asaph
as his successor. Since that time the Cathedral has been dedicated
to Saint Asaph and the Diocese bears his name. The present building
was begun in the 13th century and is reputed to be the smallest
ancient cathedral in Great Britain. The building is largely 14th
century in origin, however many alterations were undertaken from
1867. www.stasaphcathedral.org.uk. Location: In the centre of
