Cadw's description
Location
The former school room is located immediately at right angles to the Jerusalem Chapel on Ffordd-y-Rhos, and within its curtilage.
History
Dated 1885 and originally constructed as a School Room for the Jerusalem Chapel; this work was possibly a rebuilding of an earlier schoolroom. Adapted to further uses subsequently, including the Annual Treuddyn Eisteddfod.
Exterior
Rectangular single-storey former school room constructed of dark, lightly diapered, brick under a slate roof. The gabled main front facing across the chapel forecourt has camber-headed openings with voussoirs and a central datestone inscribed 1885. Broad central entrance with margin-glazed fanlight over panelled double-doors; narrower eight-paned wooden windows to either side, unusually retaining the fittings of the pay-booths to the bottom. Three-window side elevations.
Interior
Largely unaltered main room with smaller room to rear with quarry tiled floor, fireplace, and copper.
Reason for designation
Listed for group value with the adjacent Jerusalem Chapel.
