Bethlehem, Independent Chapel, Tal-Y-Bont

Bethlehem chapel built to replace Cae Gwigyn at a site less than 100 yards from the original Chapel. Initially 60 members were present. Capel Bethlehem cost £330 to build. Renovated in 1860 at a cost of over £526 - a debt which was repaid quickly as an average of £1 per annum was contributed by the members. Later a schoolhouse was added. Total capacity for the building was 320.
