The Churches of Britain and Ireland
Aberkenfig, Bridgend
The derelict Carey Baptist Church on Bridgend Road. The church was subsequently demolished - Streetview shows this to have been between 2011 and 2016. The red brick flats on the site today can be seen in a Streetview from 2022. SS 8931 8393. © Gervase N. E. Charmley. Church of God on New Street. SS 8930 8382. © Gervase N. E. Charmley. Link.

Older O.S. maps show a Chapel at the junction of Bridgend Road and Pandy Road, at SS 8936 8359. A map of 1884 labels Trinity Chapel (Calvinistic Methodist) near this point. Long demolished, its site lies beneath a widened road junction and the adjacent un-developed land - seen here by Streetview in 2022. Also on old maps is a Wesleyan Methodist Chapel on Penyfai Road at SS 8942 8316. Pre-dating a map of 1899, it doesn't appear to have survived into the 1960's. The site today is a car park (Streetview 2022).
