Pat Bellamy, Frieda Tom, Joan Kinsbrook and Lorna Pope bought a bookcase (5).  This was dedicated to Pat Bellamy in 1995. 

A rail (6) normally in front of the smaller lectern was dedicated to Ann Mary Williams in 1946 by her husband (known as Little Dai).

Following the closure of Horeb Chapel (more information on St. Brides Major History page), a pulpit chair (8) as well as a chair (6) given in memory of Mr. Desmond Lintern by his wife Iris were donated to All Saints Church. 

A green drape for the lectern was donated by Frieda Tom in memory of her husband. 

An ironwork flower stand was given by Joan Kinsbrook in memory of her husband Martin. 

Carpenter Jim Powell who was head of workmen on the Dunraven Estate made the altar in memory of his wife, Katie who was caretaker of the "old" market hall in Bridgend, also owned by Dunraven. 

On the wall of the church are two small framed photographs: one (provided by Dr. Audrey Roberts) is of the interior of the old Mission Room (as shown above) which was the previous place of worship; and the other (taken by Mrs. Joan Kinsbrook and shown at the top of this page) is of the interior of All Saints Church, the building which replaced it in 1968.  More information can be found on the Southerndown History page.
