The Sion Methodist Chapel [now the community centre in Resolven] built 1823, rebuilt 1868:
There are several plaques on the front of the building:
To commemorate the work of Sir Henry Clifford Derby (1909 - 1992) "Knight of the Valleys" Geographer, which was placed by the Resolven History Society. Read about the ceremony here.
The three Doctors of Music:
David Evans (1874 - 1948)
