Background

History

There is a Methodist chapel nearby, built in 1822, in a Gothic vernacular style. It was modified in 1902. The minister is Rev Ruth Lownsbrough and Sunday services are at 3.00 pm or 4:00 pm. The chapel is also available for community use. The local pub and restaurant is the Hall Inn. There is also a village hall available for hire. In May 2020 a man died, another was seriously injured, and a woman sustained leg injuries after an attack by a water buffalo kept at a farm near Gwehelog. The animal was later destroyed. <gallery> File:Gwehelog Methodist Chapel - geograph.org.uk - 407245.jpg|Methodist Chapel File:Hall Inn, Gwehelog - geograph.org.uk - 835628.jpg|Hall Inn </gallery>
