LLithfaen Methodist Chapel was first built in 1780 and then rebuilt in 1804, 1834 and 1870.
The present chapel, dated 1905, was built by architect Owen Morris Roberts of Porthmadog, in the Classical style of the gable entry type and with a large arch in the facade.
Sadly this beautiful building is no longer in service (as with so many of its kind) and awaits someone with a passion to restore it to its rightful place in the community.
Love these rural chapels, which I've seen across northern England as well as in the UK. Often the building is saved at the expense of the community service if the building is converted to residential
@shepherdman Thank you for your comments. Yes there are so many chapels & churches that have been turned into homes. I am sure that these places can be used to serve the community in other ways for the community's benefit-such a loss to the community.
