Saint Garmon's church, in Capel Garmon, was consecrated in 1862, but is no longer in use. An Iron Age firedog, discovered buried in a nearby field in 1852, and now held at the National Museum of Wales, is considered to have been produced by a master craftsman. It depicts two mythical creatures, part horse and part bull, and is rated as one of the most important examples of decorative ironwork found in the United Kingdom. To the south of the village, a Neolithic chamber tomb has been dated to 5,500 years ago. Nearby, Melin Plas-yn-Rhos is a water-powered corn mill thought to date from the 18th century.
Waterloo Bridge, which carries the A5 across the River Conwy to Betws-y-Coed, was built by Thomas Telford in 1815, the year of the Battle of Waterloo, and is made wholly from cast iron.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.engineering-timelines.com/scripts/engineeringItem.asp?id=755 )〕 It is Grade I listed,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/wa-121-waterloo-bridge-bro-garmon )〕 and Cyffdy Hall, at Melin-y-coed, and Cilcennus at Oaklands are Grade II
