With more than 160 illustrations and a wealth of documented information, this book presents a broad history of Christian worship within the lower half of the Western or Ebbw Valley in the County of Gwent, South Wales. The path followed is from Crumlin to Pontymister, a region that once thrived on heavy industry and retained a populace that took its religious beliefs in a most sober and dedicated manner.
Over 50 Churches and Chapels are included in this book following the valley down from Crumlin, through Newbridge, Abercarn, Cwmcarn, Crosskeys, Risca to Pontymister.
