The church was originally dedicated solely to St.Eurgain (mid 6th century) who was a niece of St.Asaph. She is understood to have come from Cilcain and then to have founded the Christian settlement and parish here (Llaneurgain), which nowadays also includes the villages of Sychdyn and Northop Hall. A building was documented in 1254 and 1291, when it was on the site of the current North aisle. It was extended East in the 14th century with a crypt beneath the new sanctuary. An arch at the East end of the arcade and 2 corbels in the nave (all relocated) are also 14th century. The church was substantially enlarged in the 15 – 16th centuries under the patronage of the Stanley family. A new nave and chancel were added to the South and a simple arcade inserted. The 98 feet high tower is said to bear a date of 1571 on a gargoyle, although it was probably started earlier in the 16th century.
