Wasn't it a part of a Catholic school along with the building in Bethesda Street which was in recent years R and Ms and a restaurant etc?

This was the Catholic hall where social events, Jumble sales meetings etc were held before they built the one at Georgetown (Now demolished) next to the drill hall. It was also used by Morgantown school which is at the rear of the hall. Below the school was the Catholic "Rooms" where there was snooker and table tennis tables etc. this later became a night club then restaurant.

The Rock Church was originally Mount Moriah Primitive Methodist Chapel which was built in 1847.
It later became the Catholic Hall in the 1860's or 1870's.

With apologies for the delay, may I ask if the chapel mentioned, the Mount Moriah Primitive Methodist Chapel is the same as Moriah Chapel or was the latter a successor building?
Thanks Philip
