Can You Photograph In The Middle Of A Summer's Day part 2

A little below the Snowdon Mountain Railway’s Hebron station are the remains of Capel Hebron, where residents of this valley worshipped before the area was depopulated.
Calvinist Methodists erected Capel Hebron in 1833 and improved it 1859 and 1871. The chapel, c.275 metres (900ft) above sea level, seated up to 120 people. It was the valley’s only communal building.
Slate quarrying, farming and tourism dominated the local economy in Victorian times, and many families moved to the growing village of Llanberis. Changes to farming practices in the 20th century further depleted Cwm Brwynog’s population, and Capel Hebron closed in 1958. The final service was held outside – because the key to the chapel was missing!
