Dolobran Meeting House is thought to be the first purpose-built Friends' Meeting House in Mid Wales. The chapel was built in 1700 on Dolobran Estate, owned by quaker Charles Lloyd. The chapel is built in the Vernacular style with bricks made in a nearby field. It has a large pane flat-headed windows. A caretaker's dwelling-cum-women's meeting adjoins to the left, with four removable wooden shutters were in the dividing wall between meeting house and cottage, on the ground and upper floors. The meeting was discontinued in 1780 and the building fell into decay. The carved oak gallery and panelling were removed c.1850 to Philadelphia, USA, and preserved as a valuable relic by William Penn's descendants. The building has been in re-use by the Friends since 1975, with the meeting house re-roofed in 1976 and the windows and walls restored by the estate during the 1990's. Dolobran is now Grade 2 Listed for its importance in the religious history of Wales.
