English: A view from the SE of Grade II listed Parish Church of All Saints, Oystermouth, Swansea
Viewed from the corner of Church Park and Church Park Lane. The first record of a church here was in 1141. There is evidence that the ancient Romans had a villa on this site. When the church building was being extended in 1860, workmen excavating the south side of the grounds found a tessellated Roman pavement (mosaic flooring). The tower is Norman, built in an era of clashes between the native Welsh and the Anglo-Normans. The stairs in the tower ascend in an anticlockwise direction designed to ensure that the sword arm (right) remained free. The church was Grade II listed in April 1952. |
