Summary

Description
English: St David's Church, Nottage

Set back from the south side of Florence Street, St David's Church is part of the Church in Wales Diocese of Llandaff.

The church's website states that St David's Church in Nottage came into existence in 1948. Previously, Communion Services had been held in a house named Redlands in West Road. However, soon after the end of the Second World War steps were taken to have a church built in Nottage. A small wooden church was erected in 1948 on land given by Mr J. K. Blundell. The building was an ex-Church Army hut that had been purchased from an RAF camp. The site had been used by the American Forces during the war. Two Nissen huts that they had left were also acquired. These were used as a schoolroom and anteroom. The small mission church was dedicated to St David and consecrated by the Bishop of Llandaff on March 24th 1948.

By 1967, the life of the Nissen huts had come to an end. In 1968 they were demolished and a classroom-style timber church hall was built. In 1970 part of the original site was sold for housing (now The Glade) and in 1978 the car park and stone boundary walls were constructed.

By 1991, in order to cater for the growing community in Nottage it was decided to build a new church on the existing site. Building work on Stage 1 began on January 8th 1992. Money was raised from grants, donations and fundraising. The work began with the demolition of the old church. While the building work was taking place all services were held in the hall. It was a nostalgic and sad time for many people but the old bell was saved and reinstalled in the new church. The church (Stage 1) was completed on November 6th 1992 and consecrated by Roy, Bishop of Llandaff on November 12th. The hall work (Stage 2) was started on December 12th 1994. All building work completed in May 1995.
