Michaelston super Ely is a village and community (or civil parish)to the west of the city of Cardiff, Wales. Its Welsh name is Llanfihangel-ar-Elai where llan=church + Mihangel="Saint Michael" + Elai="River Ely"). The historic church was decommissioned in 2010. It is approximately half a mile from the boundary with the bordering principal area of Vale of Glamorgan. To the north lies the village of St. Fagans, and to the east the Ely estate. The community of Michaelston-super-Ely was merged with St. Fagans in 1968. [edit] Research Tips
