Radyr Comprehensive School

Christ Church is a Grade II listed Anglican church in Radyr, Cardiff, Wales. It is a daughter church of St John's in Danescourt, despite being considerably larger. The church was begun in 1903, designed by G.E. Halliday, the Diocesan Surveyor for Llandaff. It was built in response to the growth in the populations of Radyr and Morganstown in the late Victorian years. The nave was first used on Easter Sunday 1904. The dedication stone was laid by Robert Windsor-Clive, 1st Earl of Plymouth, who held the title of Viscount Windsor at nearby St Fagans and had donated the land upon which the church was built. He had formerly served as Cardiff's mayor in the 1890s. The chancel, vestry and tower were added in 1910. An extension, housing parish function rooms, was added in the late 20th century. The original vestry is now a chapel.

The Church of St John the Baptist is a listed Anglican church which serves the suburbs of Radyr and Danescourt in Cardiff. According to legend, the area of Radyr was the home in the 5th Century of a hermit named Tylywai, a disciple of St Cadog, who founded a chapel or wayside shrine there. The presence of an actual church is thought to date from the 11th Century; by which time the area was on the route of pilgrims travelling to Llandaf to pay respects to St Teilo. It is referred to in written records in 1254, by which time it was already long-established. The early church was replaced in the 13th Century. Elements of the Medieval architecture survive in the present building, though the church was extensively restored and modified by John Prichard in the 1860s, and further modifications occurred in the years following. The church, which was surrounded by fields until the 1970s, became listed in 1975. The parents of the author Roald Dahl are buried in the churchyard.

The Melingriffith Tin Plate Works (alternate: Melingriffith Tin and Iron Works; Welsh, Melingruffydd; translation, "Griffith's Mill") were post medieval tin and iron works located on Tŷ-mawr Road, in Whitchurch, Cardiff, Wales. Founded sometime before 1750, it was the largest tin-plate works in the world by the end of the 18th century. Subsequent to the closure of tin plate works in 1957, the 200-year-old Melingriffith water pump was named a scheduled monument. It is one of the earliest and most important works of its kind, and may be "the most notable surviving monument of the tinplate industry".
