Cardiff Churches
Through Time
£5.00
Cardiff, the Welsh capital & home to the National Assembly of Wales, is a modern vibrant city with many attractions for visitors from all over the world.

An insignificant little fishing port with a couple of churches became, in industrial times, a boom town, in which churches & chapels of all possible denominations sprang up, to serve the needs of the nineteenth-century population explosion.

Jean Rose uncovers a variety of places of worship, some gr&, some humble, but all with a story to tell. Today, many of these buildings have gone, as religious attendance declined in the late twentieth century.

Despite this, they are a valuable part of Cardiffs rich heritage, & deserve to be marked for present & future generations. Recent years have seen church growth, both traditional & innovative, & this too is part of Cardiffs ongoing story.

Product Description

When war broke out against Germany in 1914, Cardiff & the Vale of Glamorgan was one of the most diverse & eclectic areas of Wales.

Within this 40- or 50-mile stretch of the coast sat three of the most important coal exporting docks in the world
- Cardiff itself, Penarth & Barry. Yet the area remained predominantly rural with farming being the main industry.

Tourism was also important, in the shape of Barry Island & Penarth Pier. How these scattered &, to some extent, isolated communities responded to the war, to the call to arms, is a fascinating social study.

The Cardiff Pals was formed, the docks continued to run
- & even Penarth Pier found itself caught up in the excitement of the moment, being requisitioned by the Army for the duration of the war.
