The plaque above the central window reads: Welsh Congregational / Memorial Chapel / Erected / 1865. / Site given by the Hon. Lord Sudeley. A sign at the door says: Little World Day Nursery, although the gates appear to be chained and padlocked shut. Weeds are taking hold in the entrance. Google Streetview shows a sign on the left, apparently from 2009, headed Y Capel Coffa and giving the times of services in Welsh and English at the Crescent Christian Centre / Canolfan Gristnogol y Cilgant (a church on the corner of Milford Road and Long Bridge Street). For the chapel this looks like closure..
