River Dee Community Church (Assemblies of God, Pentecostal) on Castle Street was formerly the Old King's Head pub - a Victorian building, and converted into a church about twenty years ago. A short distance away stands River Dee Community Church Annex, though what it is used for, Carl doesn't know. Both © Carl Hogan (2014). Link.

The former St. Catherine (CiW) on Church Street was used as a church hall for some time after the church closure, but is currently up for sale. © Carl Hogan (2014).

St. John's with Bagillt U.R.C. on Church Street. © Carl Hogan (2014). My appreciation to the one-time incumbent R. Browning for advising me as follows - originally St. John's Congregational Church, it became St. John's United Reformed Church in 1972. A more recent change saw it become St. John's with Bagillt United Reformed Church in 2009. Link. News item on the recent merger.

St. Mary. Another view, and an interior view. All © Tim Hollinghurst (2011). Link.
