Methodist Chapel, Llithfaen

By the beginning of the twentieth century, the old chapel in Llithfaen was too small and either had to be enlarged or rebuilt. A decision was made to build a new chapel and add a vestry. Evan Roberts 'the Revivalist' held the first religious service in the new chapel on 12th December, 1905. The chapel is a listed building as it has a curved gallery for the choir behind the Deacon's Seat and the pulpit - this is unique in Wales.
