Title: Three more unknown chapels to identify
Post by: Coldstream Lynn on Wednesday 29 July 09 13:04 BST (UK)

Can anyone help to identify 3 more chapels in Merionethshire please?
The first is in Llandbedr, the 2nd in Dyffryn Andudwy & the 3rd is in Llanaber.
Many thanks  :)

I am also looking to identify 1 in Porthmadog & 2 in Barmouth which are on the Caernarvonshire section.

I tried blowing up the second one to see what the inscriptions on the three plaques might say ... but too pixelated to read.   But if you have the picture, try scanning them at a higher resolution, and enlarge, then you might be able to read what they say ?

Unfortunately I don't have the original photo, but I believe it was a digital photo & so wasn't scanned.  :(

This is the site where I am putting all these pics that you have so kindly identified for me. I took this pic myself, but couldn't get the whole chapel in.  :(
