Located between Gavenny Way and Sycamore Avenue, on the north side of Old Monmouth Road (B4233). Pen y Fal Hospital opened in 1851 as a lunatic asylum (in the terminology of the period). This chapel replaced one that had previously been used within the main hospital itself. Since the closure of the hospital in 1997, the chapel has been unused.
