St Andrew’s is the medieval church for Penrice and the scattered farms around Oxwich, tucked into the middle of the Gower peninsula on the pilgrim route across to Rhossili. It’s a plain, weathered building of the sort the Gower does well, open to visitors and worth a look if you’re walking the lanes between the bays.
