Originally Pontesbury Independent Chapel,this chapel was built in 1839 by Independents who formerly worshipped at Plealey and at Minsterley Independent chapel. The chapel is at the centre of the range, with a Sunday School at one end and the manse at the other end. The chapel was renovated and enlarged in 1871. It is still in use as a Congregational chapel today but the noticeboard now refers to the building as a church. It is a Grade II listed building.
