In November 1951, Revd.William Fenwick moved into the new manse in Westfield Road. New organisations sprung into life: The Young Wives Fellowship, The Men's Circle, The Cowbridge Fellowship, the Under Fifteen Club, and House Meetings. At a church meeting on 29 Sep. 1954 it was agreed that the choir would sing the Lord's Prayer using the music specially written by Mr. E. J. Powell, our organist. 62 new members joined the Fellowship during this ministry.
