Tretio was a small agricultural hamlet of cottages and farms - now mostly second homes and holiday accommodation of some sort - and this chapel which dates from 1839. The graveyard is still in use. There is a story that this chapel was built by a local farmer for the benefit of his disabled wife with the proceeds of a treasure he discovered in an adjoining field named Parc Arian (Silver, or Money, Field).
