Paran Capel y Bedyddwr

Built of stone, and now rendered, with a slate roof and ringed red clayware ridge tiles. Small in scale, with the caretaker's house in line at the W extending to Oak Ridge. The 4-panelled door is set on the canted SW corner; two tall round-headed timber windows on the S wall, flanked by two shorter round-headed windows lighting the gallery. Windows on the N have been obscured by later extensions. The canted corner returns by an ogee moulding to the square under the eaves. Date plaque inset over the door, reading ADEILADWYR 1819 / HELATHWYD 1856 / ADNEWYDDWYD 1898.

The entrance door leads to a cross passage, with a central door into the body of the chapel, and a stair at the N end to the gallery. Walls are plastered and lined as ashlar, and rise to the coved ceiling with a central ventilation rose. The inserted gallery runs around three sides, supported on two cast iron rectangular columns with trailing husk decoration in the forward-facing recessed angles and fluted frieze. The gallery has a bellied iron lattice front, set on pitch-pine substructure with both dentils and modillions. Steps either side at the E rise to the part-octagonal pine pulpit set against an arch-headed recess flanked by fluted pilasters. The gallery has four rows of seats at the rear, returning as 2 rows each side. The total seating is for approximately 200. Mounted on the wall over the pulpit recess is a black marble plaque to the Sunday school conductors, with a further 9 similar tablets with gilded lettering set around the arch. A door on the N wall opens to steps up to the generous vestry.
