Barry: Places of Worship in the Area

There are many places of worship in Barry town and its surrounding villages, both formerly and in use, of many different denominations. As the area experienced major population growth in the late nineteenth century due to construction of Barry Docks, there was an exponential growth in places of worship. In 1919, the larger twentieth-century All Saints Church replaced the medieval St Nicholas Church as the parish church of Barry.
