The chapel was established in 1802
and the present building dates from 1898.
Behind the pulpit there are two beautiful stained glass windows in
memory of the Llanfair family.
On one window there is a picture of Saint Paul and on the other, the
words 'Be thou faithful unto death and I will give thee the crown of
life' encompassing the picture of a crown.
One of the memorials on the wall refers to the Rev. Jenkin
Lloyd Jones who became a Unitarian Minister in Chicago. He was the
uncle of the famous architect, Frank Lloyd Wright
The congregation was formed as a Unitarian cause by Dr.
Charles Lloyd and some followers, probably being dissatisfied with the
Arian theological stance at nearby Llwynrhydowen.
This is one of the most beautiful chapels in the area, a square building with a gallery at the back.
There is a very large cemetery and a large hall for Sunday School and social purposes above two cottages.
