Overview

Today’s walk visits Capel Salem, a Grade ll listed Baptist chapel in the village of Pentre Gwynfryn near Llanbedr. First built in 1821 and later extended and remodelled, the chapel has an interesting history which leader Derek will be able to tell us about. Our route will take us through quiet fields and woodlands and alongside the Afon Artro, passing other sites of historic interest along the way.
