In 1889, this assembly sided with Raven, and in recent years has met in two locations, one on Mill Rd., since prior to 1954, and another at the local City Hall. To this editor's knowledge, their meetings are not open to the general public, but their overall ministry & ethos may be learned about at [https://www.plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch.org/ PBCC.org]. They also operate a private school in Mossley.
At some juncture, a few families broke off from this meeting to start a gathering that is colloquially known as a Raven-Renton assembly, called [[Woodstock Renton Assembly, ON]] that may be still active.
