Siloam Wesleyan Methodist chapel, Aberystwyth




Built: 1869

Style: Gothic

Architect: J. Morgan of Aberystwyth (builder)

History: In 1859, the cause was established for the Siloam congregation to separate from the growing Salem Welsh Wesleyans, in 1861 a school was established and the chapel was built in 1869 by J. Morgan of Aberystwyth. In 1905 the chapel has been recorded for having the capacity for 250 persons.

By 1996 the chapel had been converted for use as a garage, warehouse and retail, therefore little remains of its interior, however it appears that little has changed on the exterior of the former chapel.
