Meddygfa Gyffin - GP surgery Situated in the former Siloh Methodist Chapel was built in 1901, by architect Thomas Parry of Colwyn Bay, in the Romanesque style of the gable entry type. By 1995 the chapel had fallen into disuse but was converted into this GP's surgery.
Interestingly it's a keep fit trail from the car park to the entrance by virtue of the ramp.
