Horeb Wesleyan Chapel Pontardawe (Capel Horeb) January 2017

[Richie Wales]

Horeb Wesleyan Chapel is also know as Capel Horeb is located in Potardawe, in the Lower Swansea Valley.

It was built in 1854 as a Methodist Church, and rebuilt in 1862. It was rebuilt again in 1902. The 1902 chapel was built in the arts and crafts style. I think it closed in 1995.

It have struggled to get much info on this place, and it has been pretty much been stripped of everything inside.

That really is stripped! I love the raised lettering on the outside though.

Great frontage but the inside's in a sorry state. Good stuff!

I agree, it's a shame it's in a such a sorry state now.
