Former Soar Welsh Calvinistic Methodist Chapel, Risca
A stone roundel on the dividing line between 22 and 24 St Mary Street shows SOAR in large capital letters, and the opening year (1810), of the former chapel.
At the bottom of the roundel, another year, probably 1848 (it is 184something) records the year the chapel was rebuilt. I can find no record of when the chapel closed.
