Administrative history
Bethel Presbyterian Church, Abenbury Fawr (formerly in the parish of Wrexham), Denbighshire, was erected in 1834. The cause had begun in a cottage before moving to a building formerly used as a smithy and later as a weaver's workroom. The members were few in number, only twenty-five in 1883 and fourteen in 1930.
