Parish church whose dedication to Cadog is attested by several sixteenth century sources, although churches in Caerleon with dedications to Julius and Aaron, and the Holy Trinity, were attested in the twelfth century. The location of these churches has been the subject of debate and speculation. A Capel Gwenog in the parish was also attested in 1577.

A chantry of St Mary, presumably at the parish church, was recorded in 1563.
