The excellent Wrexham History in Pictures events are back and will continue this week with the ‘Wrexham Tours’ where Alister Williams will be presenting more historic pictures of the town. There’s no need to have seen any of the previous presentations as each one can be viewed on its own, so even if you haven’t been before you’re sure to enjoy it.

As usual they are being held in the Wrexham War Memorial Club (next to Tesco) and the next one is this coming Thursday (21st September). It starts at 7pm and thanks to help from Unite the Union the whole series is free of charge to attend. Parking is available and the club bar will be open for refreshments.

Alister is a well-known local historian and author. His publications include The Encyclopaedia of Wrexham and the popular series of books known as Old Wrexham – A Collection of Pictures. The talks are both entertaining and informative; they include many old pictures & photographs and will appeal to anyone with an interest in the town and its history.

Come along yourself and you’re welcome to bring anyone else who’s interested. See you there!
