Description

The Old Cockpit is a circular building with a straight chord on the southeast side, standing two stories high. It features pebble-dashed brick walls and five windows, all beneath a conical slate roof, although some slates were missing at the time of the survey. The southwest front has an added gabled porch with a panel door. Above and to the right of the porch are two small-pane windows that have been inserted into deeper original openings, which still retain their original wooden lintels and stone sills. The left side of the building is overgrown.

At the rear, there are two round-headed small-pane sash windows with Gothic intersecting glazing bars; the left-hand window is situated above an inserted boarded door. To the right, above a lean-to against the vestry of Tabernacl, there is a similar but shortened window that retains its intersecting glazing bars and is positioned above an inserted top-hung casement.

The interior has been converted for use as a chapel of rest and features a cross-beam similar to that found in the Denbigh Cockpit at the Welsh Folk Museum in St Fagans.
