Glamorgan Archives/Archifau Morgannwg GLAMORGAN ARCHIVES/ARCHIFAU MORGANNWG Reference code: GB 0214 D1526 Title: Maendy (Maindy) Congregational Chapel, Llanblethian, Records Dates : 1878-1998 Level of description: Fonds Extent and medium: 0.002 cubic metres (7 files, 2 papers) Name of creator(s): Maendy Chapel Administrative/biographical history Maendy Congregational Chapel was built in 1802 and was an off shoot of the methodist congregation at Aberthin which had divided after a number of disputes towards the end of the eighteenth century. The Chapel was rebuilt in 1842. The religious census of 1851 recorded that the twelve month average attendance in the morning was 140, 80 scholars in the afternoon and 180 in the evening. John Evans was the Minister in 1851. In 1905 the number of communicants was recorded as 129, there were no Sunday scholars and 141 'adherents' (from evidence collected by the Welsh Church Commission). The chapel closed and planning consent was granted in 2008 for the conversion of the chapel into a single dwelling. Archival history The records were given to Cowbridge History Society in 2017, by the owner of the former chapel building. The records had originally been in the possession of Gwyn and Gwyn solicitors.

    chs04862 St Quentins castle show 1866 article.doc St Quentins castle show 1866 article. From the Glamorgan Gazette - 1866 Cottagers’ Exhibition at St Quintin’s Castle An exhibition of this kind was held yesterday (Tuesday) in the grand old ruins of St Quintin’s castle, and we can scarcely conceive a more romantic spot for the holding of a floral fete than the rich urban district of Llanblethian. The place itself, independent of Nature’s adornments, which are fully developed here, is rich in historic association, and the surrounding district is full of interest to the antiquarian. The castellated ruins, the farm homestead, have some affinity to past history, and the intelligent inhabitants are as well versed in the pedigree of defunct knights as the local politician is with the sayings and acts of his pet statesman. The charmingly picturesque village of Llanblethian (or Llan Bledian) is situate in the “cwmwdd” of Maenor Glyn Ogwr, which is now called the hundred of Ogmore, and runs down the side and to the foot of the hill; the cleanly cottages and garden plots are well surrounded with trees, which imparts to the whole a scarcely unequalled rural and picturesque effect. The village is included in the chapelry of Cowbridge and its religious wants are ministered by the Rev. Thomas Edmondes, vicar, who is also one of the magisterial magistrates of the Borough of Cowbridge. The living of Llanblethian in days long past was valued in the king’s books at £10.13s.4d, how far the stipend of the present day hold comparison, or otherwise, with the past it is no business of ours to enquire.

Indeed, the Vale of Glamorgan has over 100 Scheduled Ancient Monuments, over 700 Listed Buildings and 38 Conservation Areas that are afforded statutory protection by legislation. However, this system of statutory recognition, by its nature, only takes account of items of exceptional significance. Often there are locally important buildings that although acknowledged not to be of ‘national’ or ‘exceptional’ importance, are considered key examples of vernacular architecture or buildings, which have an important local history. It is these buildings which are often the main contributors to local distinctiveness, but which have to date, remained un-surveyed and afforded little recognition or protection. The original County Treasures project was published by the then South Glamorgan County Council in the late 1970’s. It was conceived as a locally adopted inventory of ‘special features’ in the former County area. However, as a result of local government restructuring, the changes to local authority boundaries, as well as changes in responsibilities and funding mechanisms the survey was never completed, and as a consequence was not comprehensive in its coverage.
