Description

Ty Rhos Chapel is an Independent chapel built in 1859, constructed of rubble stone with cut Cilgerran stone dressings and a slate roof. The chapel features a gable-fronted, two-storey, three-bay elevation. It has arched small-paned windows on the upper level, cambered-headed 16-pane sash windows below, and a central arched doorway with double 4-panel doors and a radiating-bar fanlight. The window heads are made of cut stone, recessed with raised keystones, and there are slate sills. The gable includes paired brackets, later 20th-century render, and a small keyed roundel in cut stone. Above the door, there is a roundel plaque that reads 'Tyrhos Congregational Chapel Built AD 1815 Rebuilt AD 1859'. The side walls have three rendered windows that match those on the front.

In 1881, spearhead railings were added to a low coped wall, which includes a gateway with two plain slate piers topped with pyramid caps. The double gates feature wrought iron scrolls and spearheads. Historical photographs indicate that the entire front was once stuccoed.

Inside, the chapel has a three-sided gallery supported by three marbled columns, raised above the level of the pews. The gallery front is high and vertically panelled, with pine pews and a plain great seat. There is an arched recess behind the balustraded pulpit. The lobby features a traceried centre window with coloured glass panes, and the gallery stairs are located in the angles.
