 A stone dating from the 6th century and inscribed with the name " Ergagni " is kept in the transept . It was discovered during excavations of the Pen Eglwys Edern site in 1972 . The font , which is medieval in date , is a plain octagonal bowl set on an octagonal column . Memorials include a " chunky Grecian memorial " to an officer of the Bengal Native Infantry who died in 1835 , a tablet in neoclassical style from 1839 , and a slate tablet to an army officer who died in 1914 . A survey by the Royal Commission on Ancient and Historical Monuments in Wales and Monmouthshire in 1937 also noted an oak communion table and two oak chairs of simple design , both from the early 18th century , and various memorials inside and outside the church from the 17th and 18th centuries .
