The larger of the two chapels is the former Primitive Methodist Chapel. It was built in 1863 when the majority of industry-related building took place in the village. Originally the chapel would have been positioned a small distance from the track joining the Gonamena Incline, but in 1877 the new railway line was constructed hard behind it. The essential character of the building still remains; the high pitched roof with original slates, tall lancet windows on the façade, the date stone and the original low front wall with railings. The chapel is now however a domestic building, the walls and quoins have been painted and there are velux windows in the roof."
