Capel Bathafarn, Ruthin

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Capel Bathafarn, Ruthin Bathafarn Chapel, on the junction of Market Street and Prior Street. The Reverend Edward Jones of Bathafarn Farm (1778 - 1837) in Llanrhudd

parish near Ruthin, has been regarded as the father of Welsh Methodism. He was ordained in 1802 and in the same year the first Nonconformist chapel was built in Ruthin under his leadership. His zeal for the Methodist cause and its promotion caused him later to be a trustee to many other congregations and he embarked on a number of preaching tours to clear their building costs. Chapels as far as Carmarthenshire bear the name Bathafarn as a tribute.

The present chapel, a memorial chapel to Edward Jones, was built in 1869.
