Unitarian Chapel, Trecynon
Viewed across Alma Street. An information board states that the Cynon Valley's first Nonconformist Chapel was established on this site in 1751 by members of the Cwm-y-glo Chapel on Merthyr Mountain. The first chapel they built here was described by the Swansea and Glamorgan Herald as, from a little distance, looking like a labourer's cottage or an inn of the humbler sort.
By 1861, the little chapel was in disrepair, and the growing size of the congregation needed more space, so the original chapel was demolished and replaced by the building seen here. The chapel has been closed for worship since 1995.
