The ancient parish comprised the townships of Treflach, Mostyn and Hendreunig, Llansannan, Rhydeidon, Beidiog, Penaled (or Pennant Aled), Llysaled, Archwedlog, Chwibren, Hescin, Deunant, Arllwyd, and Grugor. On 21 July 1855, the new parish of Bylchau was created; and the township of Grugor, with portions of Archwedlog and Deunant were transferred from Llansannan to Bylchau. The church was founded by St. Sannan, an Irish saint and bishop; and was mentioned in the Norwich Taxation of 1254. It was partly rebuilt in 1778. It was restored in 1878/1879, being re-opened on 12 June 1879. The church was in Denbighshire until 1974; and in Clwyd from 1974 until 1996. It is now in Conwy County Borough.
