Description

Capel Gosen is a chapel built in 1844, located with a house to the left in a single range. The exterior features unpainted roughcast walls and a slate roof. The chapel has a long central window flanked by two doors, all with arch-headed designs and gallery lights above. The upper window heads are at an even level, and the glazing is small-paned with marginal bars, matching the fanlights and 20th-century four-panel doors. A plaque on the right side reads "Gosen Trefnyddion Calfinaidd 1844." The rear of the chapel is made of whitewashed rubble stone and has two long arched windows that have similar glazing to the front central window. Both the chapel and the house have whitewashed rubble walls facing the graveyard and front garden.

The interior, which appears to have been altered in the late 19th century, retains features from 1844. The pulpit is situated between windows on the rear wall. There are painted box pews with panelled backs, two aisles, and a simple grained great seat, all dating from 1844. The late 19th-century pulpit has balustraded steps and a platform, with ball-finial newels and a plaster arch behind. A later 19th-century gallery extends on three sides, supported by five iron columns (three plain and two Corinthian). The gallery front has curved angles and a cove under the cornice, with a panelled front consisting of long horizontal panels and a simpler cornice above. A clock is set in a roundel at the center, and there are painted grained panels throughout, along with a boarded ceiling and painted grained lobbies.
