these links may be useful:

but seems only a volume of history at the Swansea Archive.

Thank's for the information.  I have tried the Swansea archives, but there is nothing there!

You might find something at The National Library of Wales:

Powys archives have told me that the records have not been lodged anywhere so are probably still at the chapel if they have not been lost.

I have asked a local if he can track down a member of the chapel so that I can speak to one of the deacons to find out for sure.

Will let you know the outcome.

Found out today that Ebeneser is about to close down.
Still can't find a member of the chapel, but will keep trying.

Finally found out who has the book for the chapel (and information on other chapels for the area). 
Thank you to all for the posts.
