Viewed across Goppa Road. The inscription on a large roundel on top of the facade shows GOPPA and the three years 1773 1835 and 1890, presumably the dates of the initial construction and the first and second rebuilds. The nameboard on the wall between the twin doors is in Welsh only. It shows EGLWYS BRESBYTERAIDD CYMRU Y GOPA which indicates a Presbyterian church where services are in Welsh.
