Independent Chapel rebuilt in 1876 on site of a chapel first built in 1813 and rebuilt 1857. Plaque is signed R ap Ieuan, Lleyn, who may have been the builder.

Rendered right side wall with one long similar window and attached Ty Capel (q.v.). Left side has 3 similar windows, a straight joint to right of middle window suggests that some of the earlier fabric was kept. 2 similar windows in end wall.
