Columbarium at Glyntaff Cemetery

The Columbarium at Glyntaff Cemetery is a single-storey building constructed from coursed rock-faced Pennant sandstone, featuring dressings and a central bay made of reconstituted stone. The roof is hipped at the front and covered with graded grey slates on the front slope, while the rear is finished with darker slates from North Wales. The front facade is divided into seven unequal bays by battered buttresses and includes simple pointed windows set in surrounds with sunk spandrels. The central bay is topped with a coped parapet, and the entrance is framed by pilaster strips. The four-centred doorway has a prominent keystone and modern half-glazed doors, although it was originally open.

At the rear, there are outer gabled bays, with the right-hand bay on the west side angled outward, both of which feature two four-centred arches and were added later in the 20th century. Between these bays is a colonnade with an outshut roof, consisting of seven bays with four-centred arches. Tablets are affixed to the walls of the colonnade, which also has a tiled floor.

Inside, the entrance lobby boasts a mosaic floor, a boarded ceiling, and doors with vertical ribs leading to the west and east sides of the building. Both sides contain a narrow central corridor with a tiled floor and are divided into bays by pointed arches, all finished in plaster beneath a plaster ceiling. The west side features urns set in niches, while the east side displays commemorative tablets attached to the walls.
