This modern style chapel dates back to 1985. In the early days of Mormonism, Wales had a number of congregations. Many of the pioneer Mormons migrated to Utah. In fact, today, in the state of Utah, half a million people, a fifth of the total population, claim Welsh ancestry. http://www.welshmormonhistory.org/
