Bethesda Welsh Calvinistic Methodist chapel was established in 1794. It was rebuilt/modified in 1863/4 to the design of a London architect, and again in 1875 to the design of Richard Owen of Liverpool. There were further renovations in 1905. The chapel is built in the Classical style, gable entry type. The chapel had two notable members, the novellist Daniel Owen (who based much of his work on events there), and Professor Ellis Edwards, Bala.
