From fonts to flats?
As congregations dwindle and chapels are merged some of our most beautiful places of worship are being snapped up by property developers and either demolished or converted into flats.
Others are simply left to deteriorate and it's feared hundreds in Wales could be at risk. They can't all be saved but some are being preserved and that's all thanks to the Welsh Religious Buildings Trust.
As part of BBC Here for you in Maesteg, Melanie Doel visits the Bethania Chapel in the town; sees the more intimate Capel Libanus near Llansadwrn, in Carmarthenshire and Beili Du Chapel, near Sennybridge.
