Description
Peniel Chapel and Manse is a rectangular chapel with an adjoining manse positioned at right angles to the east. It is constructed of rubble, featuring main faces made of uncoursed, dressed limestone blocks, with finely-tooled limestone quoins and dressings. The roofs are covered with slate, with the chapel having plain 20th-century bargeboards and oversailing verges that display curved, exposed purlin ends.
The gabled facade is symmetrical, showcasing tall paired windows at the center and flanking entrances, all with round-arched heads. The windows consist of 15-pane recessed, unhorned sashes that have projecting stone sills. The entrances feature recessed 4-panel double doors topped with segmental glazed fanlights. Above the windows, there is a central arched dedication plaque that includes a dedication inscription in Welsh along with the dates 1837 and 1866. The gable apex contains a plain ocular vent. The rendered rear (north) gable has two arched, 15-pane windows, and there is a 20th-century slated brick lean-to on the rubble west side.
The two-storey manse is set back to the right. It has a 20th-century 4-panel part-glazed door on the left, with original 12-pane unhorned sash windows on both floors to the right, the ground floor window featuring a segmental arch and projecting stone sills. A plain chimney is located on the stuccoed road-facing gable end, which also houses a Victorian post box. The rear of the manse has modern 3-pane windows. The interior was not inspected during the survey.
