Tabernacle Baptist Church

Tabernacle Baptist Church, dated 1727 with a porch added in 1925, is constructed of white-washed small rubble, while the porch is squared and coursed. It features a stone tiled roof with bracketed eaves and end gables. The building is a single cell rectangular structure designed to resemble a two-storey central entrance house from the outside. It has two square-headed windows on both the upper and lower levels, set in flush frames, with modern 9 over 9 small-paned windows that include top-opening lights. The gabled stone porch has a tablet that reads, 'Erected by E Propyn, Esq. J.P. Pontypool, Deacon 1925', and there is a modern plank door. A small stone stack is located on the left gable.

The rear elevation features two similar windows and a small projecting single-storey wing, along with an older central window at a lower height that originally lit the pulpit. There is a raking buttress, and the rear elevation remains unpainted.

In front of the chapel, there is a small paved area built up to road level, which includes two chest tombs of interest that are listed separately.

The interior is plain, containing pews and other furnishings from the former Tabernacle Baptist Church in Pontypool town centre, which has since been demolished. The pulpit survives but is now located on the east wall. There is a small gallery at the west end with a splat baluster front and an interesting original staircase; it is noted that galleries were present on the east and west walls as well in 1906. The king post roof is partly ceiled. The chapel was closed for many years as the main Welsh Baptist congregation was at the Tabernacle Baptist Church in Crane Street, Pontypool, which was demolished around 1970, after which the congregation returned to this former church. The timing of the main internal changes is not known, but they did not occur at that time.
