Pisgah Chapel
Pisgah near Cresswell Quay is a daughter church of Molleston an important South Pembrokeshire Baptist centre.
Services were held at first in Pencoed. Robert Scourfield writes that the chapel was built in 1829 and enlarged and re-fitted (architect K.W.Ladd) in 1877. The freehold of the chapel, the schoolroom, the burial ground and the manse (built in 1885 at Cresswell Quay) was given to the church by Henry Seymour Allen esq. of Cresselly House. In December 1922 Pisgah made history by inviting Miss Annie Davies Lodwick of Briton Ferry to the pastorate. She was the first woman pastor within the Baptist denomination in Great Britain. Zoar Congregational Chapel, Carew Newton was closed in 1994. Founded in 1861, the first meeting place was at Carew Newton cross-roads (now converted into a dwelling). A chapel was built on the present site in 1865. In 1912 the roof level was raised and a vestry built. The burial ground (1924) was the gift of Sir Thomas Meyrick of Bush. The railings were made by Jack Webb the blacksmith in Sageston.
