Pulpit and set fawr are excellent craftmanship. Chapel has no upper gallery and is a good example of its type. Is second chapel built, original in the near vicinity and fell into disrepair. Remnants of this structure and graveyard remain. Painting in present chapel depicts this earlier building - larger structure with the main entrances on the longwall side with an interior upper gallery.

Hello
My great great grandparents were married in Kinnerton Chapel in Old Radnor on 21st May1850. I have been searching for information on the Chapel, so was pleased to find this website. I have now located it on Google Street View – looks like someone is ‘doing it up’ to live in: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@52.2612635,-3.1095337,3a,90y,232.95h,84.26t/data=!3m9!1e1!3m7!1s-8DWPORkq2RFVNXBLde_-g!2e0!7i13312!8i6656!9m2!1b1!2i53?hl=en-GB
The marriage record of my ancestors Abraham Bounds and Elizabeth Williams is attached. I hope it is of interest.
All the best
