Wales used to be so full of chapels and churches that almost
no-one noticed their rapid decline into decay and deriliction. Today only the
finest or the fortunate have survived, the rest having been given up over the
years to 'light engineering' and similar manufacturing business. Seen as cheap
accommodation or storage for the sort of enterprise that could afford nowhere
else, they were badly maintained and thoughtlessly demolished. Thankfully those
days are gone, and there is strong interest in the chapel heritage of Wales. The
Zion Baptist chapel, some 130 years old, is a fine example of its type and can
expect to last a little longer. |
