Unusual building in Weston Rhyn

This is the Quinta Congregational Sunday School, built in 1882 by the local landowner, Thomas Barnes, who also built the Quinta Congregational Chapel up the road. Originally built as a day school and Sunday School, universal state education made it used as only a Sunday School, though there were other events held in it down through the years (Gardeners' Question Time many years ago). Changes in regulations and shortage of funds have reduced usage, but it is still used for the Sunday School of the Quinta Independent Evangelical Church (the newer name for the Quinta Congregational Church) which meets in the Quinta Congregational Chapel
