The Church of St Mary the Virgin, known locally as the 'Cathedral of the Moors', was founded by Cadwaldr Fendigaid and stands above the fenland and the road to Aberwythel, Magor's long vanished port. No traces of the early church remain and the present building was built mainly in the 13th and 15th Centuries, although some early Romanesque work dating from the 12th Century is to be seen in the north wall of the Chancel.
