Description
Gedeon Independent Chapel is a building from 1830, featuring a rendered exterior and a slate roof with paired brackets at the eaves. The east-facing lateral facade includes two large cambered-headed windows with 24 panes each and outer doors that are four-panel flush-panelled. There is an eroded plaque in the center that reads: 'Gedeon erected AD 1830 TJ VDN Hosanna Alleluia'. The south end has a horned 12-pane gallery light, and there is a rubble stone outbuilding with a door and a 9-pane casement. The rear of the chapel also has two large cambered-headed windows with 24 panes. A vestry addition, dated 1930, is located at the north end and is roughcast with a stack on the north side.
Inside, the chapel retains much of its original 19th-century character, including grained painted woodwork, box pews arranged on a sloping floor, and a simple panel-fronted pulpit with a seat-back that features half-columns and an arch, all in grained wood. There is a five-sided gallery supported by two grained wood columns, with two thin iron posts and two square timber posts set back. The gallery front is panelled and has a railing above supported by stick balusters. A clock in the center is marked 'Owen, Haverfordwest', and the flat ceiling features a plain roundel.
