St Padarn Church

            Llanberris 
Snowdonia 
North Wales
The original church of St Peris was 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) to the south-east of Llanberis and as the town expanded a new church was required.
The foundation stone was laid on 3 January 1884[1] by Captain N.P. Stewart of Bryntirion.
The building was funded by the Assheton Smith family, which owned the rights to the slate quarried at nearby Dinorwig. It was designed by Arthur Baker of 14 Warwick Gardens, Kensington, London, a pupil of Sir George Gilbert Scott. The medieval font from St Peris was transferred here. The walls were built of local stone, with dressings of red stone from the quarries of Guest and Son, Runcorn. The construction cost was £5,455 (equivalent to £602,403 in 2020).[2]
The building was dedicated on 24 June 1885.[3]
Harold Hughes enlarged the church in 1914 with the addition of the Lady Chapel, on the church's north side, and the completion of the nave.
