Bethel Chapel

Bethel Chapel is a chapel constructed from squared Preseli stone, featuring roughcast side and rear walls. It has a slate roof that overhangs at the eaves, with plain bargeboards on the front gable and paired brackets on the sides, along with a short return under the bargeboards. The gable front includes arched openings made from grey Cilgerran or Rosebush stone voussoirs and outer arch rings. There is a roundel in the gable with a pierced slate ventilator and a rectangular plaque beneath it, flanked by two long side windows and a pair of small centre windows above a broad door. The windows have slate sills, and the timber window glazing bars were replaced around 1940, along with the door and fanlight. A slate chamfered cap sits atop a low plinth. The sides have two windows each, and the end gable also features two similar long windows.

Inside, the chapel has a galleried interior with plastered walls and a boarded ceiling. The three-sided gallery is supported by fluted columns crafted by T Thomas of Cardigan. The gallery front is panelled in long sections divided by squares, with curved square panels in the corners. A clock by T Thomas of Cardigan is also present. The pews are arranged in three blocks, featuring shaped ends and panelled backs, with some inward-facing pews flanking the pulpit. The set fawr has turned newels and finials that are echoed on the newels of the platform stairs. The break-front platform showcases Jacobean-style pierced panels with a low open rail above, adorned with turned finials. Similar Jacobean-style panels are found on the sides of the platform. Behind the pulpit, there is a plaster arch with panelled pilasters, large decorative consoles, and ornate arch mouldings. The ceiling features a narrow coved cornice and a small plastered border, but is mostly boarded, divided by diagonal timber into four sections around a very ornate plaster rose at the centre, which has a six-petal flower surrounded by a ring of six large acanthus leaves, all encircled by an ornate ring. The lobby contains one square window with coloured glass in the margins, two doors leading into the chapel, and two sets of stairs to the gallery.
