Description

All Saints church was located on the east side of Woodland Road. It was built in 1904-5 to designs of architect J.Cook Rees of Neath, and comprises a nave and lower chancel. It is built of yellow Morriston brick and yellow terracotta, in a lancet style with classically regular angle quoins.
The church originally opened as Lon-las Mission Room, in 1904-5, and remained so until it was dedicated to All Saints, after 1918 but before 1946, possibly with alterations. The church had closed by 2006 when a planning application was made for its re-use. Current OS mapping suggests the site has been re-developed.
