Bethesda Baptist Chapel

Bethesda Baptist Chapel is a Romanesque-style building that dates back to 1837, with a rebuild completed in 1889. It features a gabled, two-storey structure with a basement and a three-bay front made of snecked masonry, accented by ashlar dressings. The steeply pitched slate roof has a gable parapet at the front, topped with a finial, and an advanced central bay.

The apex of the central bay showcases a stepped tripartite window with round arches, colonnettes, and stopped hoodmoulds, along with louvres. Below this, a stone tablet indicates the chapel's name and its construction history. The front also includes a ten-light wheel window adorned with cusped foils and dogtooth ornamentation, as well as two-light round-arched windows in the outer bays, which feature colonnettes and stopped hoodmoulds, mirroring the design of the ground floor.

Access to the impressive Romanesque doorway is via stone steps with iron handrails that bridge the basement areas. The doorway itself is characterized by a two-order round arch with fleuron and dogtooth mouldings, nookshafts with foliate capitals, and double doors that have fillets and iron straps. Flanking the staircase are cast iron lamp standards with barley twist shafts and moulded bases, while the basement windows have Victorian sashes and sidelights accompany the central door beneath the steps. The voussoirs and architraves are made of stick brick.

The side elevations have four windows and are rendered on the south side, with stock brick dressings. The first floor features pointed arches, while the ground floor has cambered arches and two-light windows. The basement windows also have Victorian sashes. The rear gable end is slate hung, with two stock brick stacks flanking the apex. There is a rendered lean-to projection with lower, advanced hipped wings that include a five-light traceried window at the top and a doorway at the base, with Victorian sashes on the flanks and the top storey of the wings.
