Peniel Methodist Chapel was built in 1815 and rebuilt in 1910 in the Gothic style of the gable-entry type.
The original plans and design drawings by George Dickens-Lewis of Shrewsbury, dated 1906, are preserved by the chapel and have been loaned to RCAHMW for copying.

Information received from a member of the public September 2017: "In the 1970's I spoke to an elderly chap who remembered this chapel being built. He told me a bottle containing a photograph of the builders was buried under the concentric steps at the front of the building".
