Hope English Baptist Church, Gelli
Located near the SW corner of Gelli Park, on the corner of Park View and Lon-y-parc. The English in its name describes the language of worship, to distinguish it from churches in the area where Welsh is or was the language of worship.
This is the original chapel, built in 1902. It became the school room to a larger chapel consecrated in 1906. The larger chapel closed in 2003 whereupon the congregation worshipped here again.

Gelli Park bowling green, Gelli
The bowling green and pavilion occupy the northern edge of the park.
There appears to have been little if any bowling in the Rhondda before the 20th century : the first recorded instance appears to be in the summer of 1904 on the grounds of the Upper Rhondda Tennis Club, Pentre. This bowling green in Gelli Park dates from 1912.
