It is probable that the Ty'n Rhosydd stone, the longest early medieval inscribed epitaph in Wales, once stood close to 'Capel Bronwen' near Rhydyrarw, a crossing point of the river Alaw in north-west Anglsey. The stone was removed and found a temporary resting place on the edge of the adjacent township of Chwaen, in the parish of Llantrisant, some five kilometres to the north-east. The article focuses on the particular significance of the inscribed stone, possible wider associations, and the sophistication of the Christian epitaph
