About the memorial: With associated nowy headed tablet. "A little brick building on the A3102 has a varied history. It began as a war memorial hall, built in 1920 and paid for largely by returning soldiers who donated some or all of their gratuity. It was used as a community room for recreation and reading; for a time it was used by the Boys' Club. After WWII, it was taken over as an overflow classroom for the school opposite; it then became a branch of the Midland Bank but in the mid 1990s the local council took it over as a library, which it remains.", c © Neil Owen - geograph.org.uk/p/7198872
