- Summary: Jerusalem Welsh Calvinist Methodist Chapel was founded and built in 1842 to the design of T. Evans of Bangor. It was later remodelled, in 1872-5, by Richard Davies of Caernarfon. It is a large, near-square plan chapel, in the Italianate palazzo style. The majority of the building is original, with the unpainted stucco exterior and large porch added in 1872. The chapel is of two storeys, with a hipped slate roof. There are five windows to the front elevation, four to the sides; the windows are very large small-paned sashes in moulded architraves with rope-mould detail. To the front of the chapel are quoin pillasters with facetted rustication. The single-storey porch has three bays, below a flat roof. The central bay forms a monumental round arch, between pillastered outer bays. To the rear of the chapel is a very large hipped-roof two-storey schoolroom and vestry block.
The remodelling of 1872-5 was planned to resemble an amphitheatre, and the majority of the interior comprises steeply raked curved pews following a U-plan, backing onto a curved inner wall with plain sash windows, some taking borrowed light. The polished mahogany freestanding pulpit is monumental, with polished brass rails and steps to either side. There is organ gallery to the rear of the chapel, with a fine Renaissance-style triple arch, with ornamental decoration to the cornice, frieze, spandrels and capitals. The ceiling forms a large domed main circle, with broad moulded surroud and moulded ring to the centre rose, flanked by radiating patterns. There is a pendant chandelier which was added at a later date.

K Steele, 17 February 2009 - Description: Chapel founded and built 1842 to the design of T. Evans of Bangor. Remodelled in Classical style 1874-5, short-wall entry type, to the design of Richard Davies of Bangor. Later modifications & additions 1900-5. Building is listed Grade 1. Status (1997): in chapel use.
This is a Calvinistic Methodist chapel but has amalgamated with the Annibynwyr; a joint pastorate has recently been started, and a Minister of the Annibynwyr persuasion appointed in 1997.
Summary: stone-built galleried chapel in Italianate classical style. Semi-circular auditorium within an oblong shell, and in this, similar to Capel Ebenezer, Caernarfon, where the almost contemporary remodelling of ca. April 1875-1876 was the work of the same architect, Richard Davies of Bangor. Similar but not identical arrangement of ground-floor chapel and gallery stair lobbies; also both with box pews of ca. 1875. Were the pulpits both to Richard Davies's design?
History and development: founded in 1842 (Royal Commission on the Church of England and other Religious Bodies) and erected in 1842 (Religious Census of 1851) to the design of T. Evans, architect of Bangor (Board of Celtic Studies database). The chapel is shown, with a short rear wing but without front porch, on a Penrhyn estate plan of 1856 (S2218, Archives, University of Wales, Bangor).
In 1874-75 the chapel was remodelled "from the designs of Mr R. Davies, architect, Bangor" (Caernarvon & Denbigh Herald, 22/5/1875) and re-opened on 21st May, 1875. The remodelling comprised the present form of the auditorium and included an open porch with an arch of 5 yard span in front of the chapel and a schoolroom. The building work was carried out by Mr Owen Williams of Bangor, and provided seating for 900, for 950 including the passages. The present ceiling was formed and at the centre a gas sunlight fitted by Stroude and Co., London and a ventilator; gas brackets on the walls and on the front of the gallery. The windows were fitted with obscured glass; stained glass in the rear ground-floor window backing on to the porch, by Forrest & Co., Liverpool. A mahogany pulpit was fitted and pews painted in oak colour (Hanes dechreuad y Methodistiaid yn Llanllecgyd a Llandegai). The outline of the chapel shown as now on OS 1st ed. Map of 1889, including front porch.
There had later been hopes for a new schoolroom and for other works in the chapel but these had initially come to nothing (annual report of 1896). A new lecture hall, schoolroom and classrooms were erected from ca. 1896 (Board of Celtic Studies database). The organ was also built and installed and associated works carried out in the chapel. Payments made in 1897 included 1000 as part payment for the buildings, 12-17-11 for stove and grate in the "Room" (presumably the lecture hall) and grates for the Room (11-10-0), 45-10-0 for lamps and chandeliers, and 90-0-0 for benches for the "Rooms" and 8 chimney pieces - 3-17-6 - and for a lamp on the steps leading to the room (3-2-0) (recorded in chapel's annual reports, NLW). Part payments for organ (600) and buildings (459-1-0) were made in 1901; other payments then included 299-15-0 for cementing and staining the chapel, fenders and benches in the rooms (31-0-0), 12-17-0 for cushions for pulpit and Sedd Fawr, for mica burners and umbrella holders (14-14-0), for carving and moulding (16-0-9), 10-9-6 for spandrels on the pilasters; 38-0-0 for carpets and blinds for the chapel.
In 1902 payments included 110-0-0 as last payment for the organ and 58-2-8 as ?last payment to the architect, 23-17-0 as last payment for painting, "ysteinio & furneisio" the chapel; 11-10-6 on handrails for the pulpit, 2-15-5 for "ffyn" steps and rail in front of the organ (annual reports, in NLW). The 1899 2nd ed. OS map shows the outline of the chapel as in 1899, but by 1914 ed., it is shown with rear schoolroom as now.
Accommodation: in 1851, Space: free 162, other 905 (Religious Census of 1851); in 1905, seating accommodation for 800 in chapel and 450 in schoolroom (appendices to the Royal Commission on the Church of England and other religious bodies).

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

Dear Sara
Thank you for the information. I am glad to hear that it was some help to you.
Good luck on your continued search
