Llwydcoed Crematorium

The building is formed of four asymmetrical main blocks with steep slate roofs "set back-to back, their steep roofs forming a fractured pyramid" (Newman). The large Capel Mair seats 120, and the smaller Capel Tydfil 50 people. The third block is the Chapel of Remembrance. The Crematory block has a large chimney. There is a lower block with waiting room and vestry, and former offices. These blocks are linked to one another by covered courtyards whose flat roofs extend to become portes-cocheres with outer ends supported on roughcast screen walls. The roofs of the courtyards have openings to light the planted areas below. Materials are predominantly white roughcast walls on natural stone plinths, and Ffestiniog slates to extensive roofs; pine boarding to ceilings of exterior canopies; chiefly natural paving also to courtyards.
