It all began in 1905…when the Memorial Hall in Smithfield Street Oswestry was built, under the instruction of Mrs Sarah Parry-Jones. She wanted the building to be a memorial to her two sisters who had tragically died within a week of each other in March 1895. At an opening ceremony on 27th January 1906, Mrs Parry-Jones gifted The Memorial Hall to the town, for use as a community venue. She hoped it would be a place to inspire and enable community spirit, where people could come together to support each other; as a fitting tribute to her two sisters. And so it would be!
