 The chapel was founded in 1849 by baptists who previously worshipped at neighbouring Llandyfan and Saron.The following year, a new chapel which was named Ebenezer was built near Quay Street adjacent to a property known as Primrose Cottage.Primrose Cottage was subsequently acquired by the chapel and served as the chapel caretaker's residence until it was demolished in the 1960s and replaced by a car park.
