Description
The English Congregational Chapel in Old Colwyn was built in 1925, the congregation having previously met in the schoolroom of Ebeezer , the Welsh Independent Chapel.

The church is built in the Gothic style with a gable entry plan. It is constructed of squared local limestone, with red sandstone dressings and a red tiled roof. At the west end is a small spire with red tile cladding and louvered vents. There is a red sandstone porch below, with canted corners and small side windows, over which is a large traceried window. During the 1930's an extension, designed by S Colwyn Foulkes was added, distinctive for it's large transomed 'bow' window surmounted by a semi-conical roof.
