The former Horeb Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, now in secular use, and identified by Janet Gimber. SH 9072 7348. © Mike Berrell. Coflein dates it to 1895, a re-build of the 1833 original, and was disused "by 1995".

Hyfrydol Chapel (Calvinistic Methodist, 1888). SH 9077 7356. © Mike Berrell. The Coflein entry dates it originally to 1819, with re-builds in 1857 and 1898. The photograph, and the 2009 Streetview suggest that it has been converted to residential use.

Seion Independent Chapel stands just west of the village, at SH 9010 7384. The Coflein entry dates it to 1782, with closure in the 1980's. The 2009 Streetview shows that it has since been converted to residential use.
