Beulah Congregational Chapel

The chapel was erected in 1821, re-erected in 1841 and enlarged in 1883 according to the inlaid stone on the front of the building. The first Beulah Music Festival was held here in September 2004 and the second, in 2005.

The building has a lovely acoustic and is a welcoming space for music making but due to its furnishings and internal layout is best suited for choral concerts and small instrumental ensembles.
