The Romilly Road area, where Romilly Quarter is nestled, has a rich historical heritage that dates back to 1412 when the Romilly family acquired substantial estates in the vicinity. The construction of Barry docks marked a period of rapid growth in Barry, and in 1889, the Sunday School House was erected, serving as a church while the main chapel was under construction. A decade later, the impressive Neo Gothic Chapel was inaugurated. It is believed that both the Chapel and the School House were constructed by the esteemed civil engineer, Thomas A. Walker. Mr. Walker was a figure of remarkable engineering accomplishments and made significant contributions to industrial development by overseeing the construction of the Barry Docks, Railway, and The Severn Tunnel.
