''This is an amazing space with a very serene and tranquil atmosphere'' FREEHOLD - COUNCIL TAX BAND - awaiting - EPC - EXEMPT. Land Registry Title No. CYM470524. 25/3/2022 AF Architecture '' This particularly fine complex of buildings is built at an angle to Abergele and Nant y Glyn Roads to take account of the steeply sloping ground. The church and the associated hall form an interesting architectural composition which rewards careful study. The architect was Arthur Brocklehurst of Manchester and was built in 1905 at a cost of £6,000 by local builders John Tucker & Sons. In general terms the group of building are distinctively red – red tiles (with courses of shaped tiles to add interest to the roof), fine, narrow jointed Ruabon red brick complimented by the use of terracotta for horizontal banding, window tracery, gable parapets and buttress tops. Looking at the church from Nant y Glyn Road, note the way in which the ogee gutters are supported on corbels, the arched windows with their hood moulds and the square downpipes. The elevation facing Nant y Glyn Road is divided into bays by buttresses. The windows are of leaded lights or stained glass. The elevation facing Abergele Road stands high above the road. The main features to note on the bold front gable facing towards Abergele Road include the projecting front porch with the pairs of windows to the sides, the large window above formed of terracotta tracery, the buttresses which frame the gable and are capped by decorative finials. The central portion of the gable projects forward slightly to add depth and interest to the gable and to create additional shadows. The principal approach to the church is from the corner of Abergele Road and Nant y Glyn Road, marked by limestone pillars and ornate gates which lead to flights of steps up to the church. The high stone wall running along Abergele Road prevents much of the side elevation being seen. Another similarly imposing access lies at the eastern end of the main road frontage.''Floorplan
