Capeli Anghydffurfiol Cymru: Pensaernïaeth Genedlaethol gan Susan Fielding

O gapeli gwerinol cynnar diwedd yr 17eg ganrif ymlaen, mae ein Huwch Ymchwilydd ar gyfer Adeiladau Hanesyddol yn cloriannu pensaernïaeth y capeli a’i lle yn ein cymdeithas, ac yn trafod sut mae’r Comisiwn Brenhinol yn mynd ati i gofnodi a deall yr adeiladau pwysig hyn.

Welsh Nonconformist Chapels: A National Architecture by Susan Fielding

Welsh chapels are arguably the most iconic buildings in Wales, but also one of the building types most at threat from closure, dereliction and demolition.
