The haunting remains of the chapel that used to serve the men who worked at the Rhosydd Quarry. It makes for a stunning foreground for your photographs. This area is peppered with remains of the slate mining industry's infrastructure.

The ruin of the chapel is also called Capel y Gorlan. It is located on the edge of Cwmorthin Quarry, a slate quarry. The way are on the one hand slate plates as a "fence" set up. Looks great.
