Description

Capel Pantdefaid is a Unitarian chapel built in 1898, featuring a painted stucco exterior and a hipped slate roof. The building has a near square plan with three-window sides and two-window ends. The facade includes matching long outer windows and two shorter center windows with a date plaque positioned between them, along with a broad doorway below. All windows are arched and feature two-light timber tracery with roundels in the heads. There is a stucco impost band, heads above the side windows, and full surrounds for the facade windows. The upper windows extend through the band and have shoulders to their surrounds. The doorway is framed by a pilastered surround with a moulded arch, double doors, and a crescent overlight with a roundel. The architectural details date from 1898. The churchyard contains a notable collection of well-lettered slate headstones.

Inside, the chapel retains its 1898 fittings, including pine pews, a balustraded curved set fawr, and a pulpit adorned with two panels of blank Gothic arcading, flanked by balustrades and stairs. An end wall gallery is supported by two ornate iron columns, with the front featuring delicate pierced cast-iron panels. Behind the pulpit, there is a marble plaque set in an arched surround and two stained glass windows, one depicting St Paul, created by John Hall and Sons of Bristol and London. The ceiling is panelled and boarded.
