Capel Gellionnen, a Grade II listed Unitarian place of worship built in 1692, is often known as the ‘White Chapel’ and is located on Gellionnen mountain overlooking the Swansea valley and down towards the city of Swansea and Mumbles. The chapel is situated at crossroads where four roads converge leading from Swansea to Brecon, Ammanford to Neath. Led by Rev. Josiah Rees, and supported by poet and polymath Iolo Morganwg, the chapel which had originally been built by Protestant dissenters, converted to Unitarianism and in 1802, the Welsh Unitarian Society was founded during a meeting at Capel Gellionnen. The chapel continues to serve a large weekly congregation on Sundays and regularly hold inclusive worship and social events throughout the year. Further information is available on the chapel’s website www.gellionnen.org

In the foreground of this image is Carn Llechart, a ring cairn or stone circle. A late Neolithic or early Bronze Age circle of around twenty-five low stones with a burial cist in its centre. Carn Llechart is a striking circle as its kerb stones have been arranged at an outward angle to create a 'crown of thorns' effect. The cist would have been topped by a large stone slab, but this has been lost, and the cist itself covered by a large cairn, or mound of earth. However, experts are divided as to whether there would have been a covering mount.
Access to Carn Llechart is off Baran Road, 1 mile north-west of Rhyd-y-Fro village.
