On the corner of New Street with Castle Street is the Little Chapel, which may be a candidate for smallest town chapel in Wales. Originally built in the early 19th century as an outbuilding to one of the houses in Laura Place, it was later re-fronted with a classical, gable-end facade of a large central window flanked by doorways. In 1898 George Eyre Evans had observed that the Quakers met regularly 'in the small hall in New Street'. By 1905 it was a library and bookshop, but it was used as a Unitarian place of worship from 1906 and shared with the Quakers. Regular Unitarian services ceased in the 1970s but occasional services have continued to be held, and it is hoped that more regular services will resume shortly. Note the blocked windows and doorway from coach house days.
Return to Laura Place and cross into St Michael's churchyard
