Description
Mount Zion Chapel is a chapel and caretaker's house, now used as a factory and house, built around 1861. It is constructed from hammer-dressed sandstone with ashlar dressings and features a Welsh blue-slate roof. The building has two storeys and a three-bay symmetrical facade. Notable architectural elements include a plinth, quoin piers, a first-floor sill band, a moulded cornice, and sections of a parapet flanking a pediment gable. The wide doorway is adorned with Doric pilasters, an entablature, and a cornice. All windows are round-headed with keyed arches and margin glazing. A plaque inscribed "MOUNT ZION 1861" is located in the pediment. The right-hand side of the building has six bays of arched windows and gutter brackets.
Attached to the left and slightly set back is a two-storey, two-cell cottage. This cottage features a doorway with an overlight to the left of a sixteen-pane sash window, with a matching window above that also has a sill band. The cottage has a coped gable on the left and a gable stack on the right, at the junction with the chapel.
