The "Old Chapel" of Clough.
The "Old Chapel" of Clough was situated in the graveyard in Clough. It was disused as a church when the present church was erected. One portion of the "Old Chapel" was used as a National School from that time until the present National School was opened in September 1910. It is now used as a Parochial hall. Classes for instruction in Woodwork and in Cookery are occasionally held there. Concerts are held a few times each year there. Plays are performed by a local Dramatic class.
The other portion of the "Old Chapel" was demolished in 1909 and the stones and slates of it were used in the building of the new school.- Collector
