Christchurch, Newport

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christchurch (Welsh: Eglwys y Drindod) is a hamlet located on the top of Christchurch Hill in the Caerleon ward of the city of Newport, South Wales. The top of the hill awards panoramic views both towards the Bristol Channel in the south and through the Vale of Usk and into the Monmouthshire countryside to the north. Due to this elevated position, the hill is home to the Christchurch Transmitter, located near the Celtic Manor Resort.

The village church is Holy Trinity [1].
