Soar-y-mynydd or Soar y mynydd is a Calvinist Methodist chapel near the eastern extremity of the large parish of Llanddewi Brefi in Ceredigion.

Soar-y-mynydd stands in the valley of the river Camddwr in the Cambrian Mountains, near the eastern border of Ceredigion (National Grid Reference SN 7847 5328).

The Calvinistic Methodists are a Welsh Protestant revivalist movement forming the Presbyterian Church of Wales.

They formed a separate body from the Church of England and from other Methodists after 1821, when their Rules of Discipline were published, followed in 1823 by their Confession of Faith,[1] which enshrined a moderate evangelical Calvinism.

Since its formal reopening in that year, publicity has meant that some well-attended summer services with visiting preachers are now held on the last Sunday in August.

The chapel also now attracts artistic attention; it was painted for example by Ogwyn Davies in 1993,[3] and has featured in poems for example by Harri Webb and Iwan Llwyd.

[5] Soar-y-mynydd is a simple Cadw grade II*-listed building made of local rubble stone collected from riverbeds and ruined farmsteads in the area.

The chapel is entered on the longer east side through two pairs of doors, and the pulpit is located between the two doorways.

A prominent feature is the painted scroll above the pulpit with the text “Duw cariad yw”, i.e. ‘God is love’ (First Epistle of John 4:8 and 4:16), dating from 1911.
