A Nonconformist Sunday School began to be held in Rhos Street around 1788 in an old barn. A Mr William Parry purchased land nearby for £20 and Capel y Rhos was built upon it. Throughout the nineteenth century the chapel attracted worshippers from a wide area around the town. Capel y Rhos later became a 'mission' chapel before its final closure.It then became a car repair workshop and now houses the post office vans.
