Rough-cast render elevations with smooth rendered dressings; hipped slate roof. Entrance up steps with cast-iron railings with swept hand rail. Round-arched doorway with hoodmould carried on simple cornice moulding; paired vertically-panelled doors and plain overlight. Similar moulded detail to flanking tall round-arched windows (one each side) which have Y-traceried glazing bars. Inset slate above entrance records chapel name and date of construction. Return elevations each have 4 windows with similar detail including Y-tracery, and simple dressings. Moulded eaves cornice to these long elevations". The village was home to workers and miners at nearby Amlwch and Parys Mountain copper mines as well as suppliers of their clothes & clogs. Its courtyard (more of a garden with small lawns divided by concrete paths & fronted by low stone wall with iron railings & central gates) is flanked by the minister’s house on left (out of picture), and a substantial schoolroom & storehouse on right. Disused, run-down: In May 2008, when photo taken, Morgan Evans State Agents 'For Sale' sign on house, and assume whole complex was up for sale/development. In 2020 the house listed on Council Tax register, and has accommodation of two bedrooms, and one bathroom.
