The current Risca Parish Church was built in 1852 in a Gothic revival style. However, it replaced an earlier church on the same site and, during demolition of the earlier building, Roman remains were discovered in the foundations. Whilst a church is likely to have existed since the 12th century, it has been suggested that the site may be of Celtic origin.

There are three separate Grade 2 listed structures: the church itself, the entrance gateway and the remains of a churchyard cross.

The parish records of Baptisms, Marriages and Burials will be available for inspection.

Refreshments will be available.

Address - St. Mary's Street, Risca, NP11 6HB.

The church is on St. Mary's Street, immediately opposite a bus stop on the route of the Newport to Blackwood service numbers 151 and 56. There is a small adjacent car park and street parking is available close by.

Also taking part in Open Doors is Risca Museum.
