- Summary: Cowbridge Methodist Chapel first built in 1781, modified in 1808 and rebuilt during the mid nineteenth century. The later chapel was built in the Simple Gothic style with a gable-entry plan and large pane windows. By 2003 the chapel had been converted for use as a shop.
RCAHMW, May 2010 - Description: Chapel first built ca. 1780-1; rebuilt/modified ca. 1808. Likely rebuilt in the mid nineteenth century and has subsequently had a shop building added to the gable end making it very difficult to see the original chapel. The left hand wall is still visible down a narrow alleyway and the top of the gable end can be seen over the top of the new shop building. Status (2003): other.
Site shown on OS 25" maps 1899 & 1919 as "Methodist Chapel (Wes)".

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
