Soar Chapel in Tre'r Ddôl was formerly the site of the Hen Gapel Museum, a branch of the Welsh National Folk Museum which closed in the 1990s. The museum was originally created in the late 1960s by the academic R J Thomas, editor of the Geiriadur Prifysgol Cymru. Soar Chapel was chosen for its links with Humphrey Rowland Jones, who had begun the 1858–60 Welsh revival there.
The poet and farmer, Dic Jones, and the writer Elma Mary Williams were born in Tre'r Ddôl.
