Description

Capel y Berthen is a simple classical style chapel with pebble-dashed walls and a slate roof. The openings feature rock-faced stone dressings, and the windows are horned sashes with Italianate tracery and bracketed stone sills. The front of the chapel has four round-headed windows and a doorway to the left of center, which is topped with a segmental head and has a replaced panel door. To the right of center, a tablet notes the chapel's foundation in 1775 and its subsequent rebuildings.

A lean-to porch is attached to the right gable end, with a doorway that projects in front of the chapel and is gabled. This porch has replaced double panelled doors but retains its original radial overlight. The side wall of the porch includes a central window under a gablet similar to the chapel's front, with a band of blank foundation tablets below it, flanked by narrow sash windows. Above the porch, the gable end of the main chapel features a keyed oculus and a coped freestone verge.

Attached to the left gable end is a lower gabled school room and hall, built in 1992, above which the main chapel has a coursed rock-faced stone stack. The rear of the chapel has four windows that are similar to those at the front.
