Graig Penllyn

Chimney at former Llangan Lead Mine This chimney is all that is left of the Llangan Lead Mine which was active from 1855 to 1879. The site had been worked in the 18th century but was reopened to expolit a seam of lead and silver. The chimney stands solitary and somewhat incongruous in a private field in the glorious Vale of Glamorgan countryside but is a grade II listed structure.

Church of St Canna, Langan Probably 12th century in origin and plan, with the core walling possibly surviving in part, though very limited. Possibly 14th century rood stair and chancel arch. Some 16th century fabric may survive in the porch, but the church was externally almost completely rebuilt probably in 1856. The building has been unaltered since apart from the introduction of electricity.
Cadw listed as Grade II.
