English: Former Nash Baptist Chapel, Pye Corner The chapel opened in 1820 with seating for 125. Its congregation included residents of what was then the hamlet of Liswerry, a mile or so distant (about 2 kilometres).
Some of the congregation found it more convenient to attend Liswerry Baptist Church when it opened in 1889, the same year that Liswerry was incorporated into Newport under the provisions of the Newport (Mon.) Corporation Act, 1889.
This began a decline in attendances at Nash Baptist Chapel, to only 5 members in 1988. The chapel closed soon afterwards.
In 2006, a planning application was made to Newport City Council to convert the building into a dwelling house with vehicular access, but, externally at least, little has changed in the 3 years since this photo https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/148640
