HistoryThe building was designed as the headquarters of the 1st Volunteer Battalion, The Royal Welch Fusiliers and was completed in 1902.[1] It was opened by Field Marshal Lord Roberts in April 1903.[1] The 1st Volunteer Battalion, The Royal Welch Fusiliers evolved to become the 4th (Denbighshire) Battalion, The Royal Welch Fusiliers in 1908.[2] The battalion was mobilised at the drill hall in August 1914 before being deployed to the Western Front during the First World War[3] and the drill hall was used by the Home Guard during the Second World War.[4] The 4th (Denbighshire) Battalion, The Royal Welch Fusiliers evolved to become the 3rd (Volunteer) Battalion, The Royal Welch Fusiliers, while still based at the Poyser Street drill hall, in 1971.[2] However, in July 1988, a new Territorial Army Centre opened at Hightown Barracks for use by the battalion and the Poyser Street drill hall was decommissioned and converted for industrial use.[5] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.drillhalls.org/TownWrexham.htm|title=Wrexham|publisher=The Drill Hall Project|accessdate=19 August 2017}} 2. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.regiments.org/regiments/uk/volmil-wales/vinf/rwf-4.htm |title=4th Battalion, The Royal Welch Fusiliers |publisher=regiments.org |accessdate=20 August 2017 |deadurl=bot: unknown |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20060211172326/http://www.regiments.org/regiments/uk/volmil-wales/vinf/rwf-4.htm |archivedate=11 February 2006 |df=dmy-all }} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.longlongtrail.co.uk/army/regiments-and-corps/the-british-infantry-regiments-of-1914-1918/royal-welsh-fusiliers/|title=Royal Welch Fusiliers|publisher=The Long, Long Trail|accessdate=3 July 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.wrexham-history.com/wrexhams-military-heritage/1941-wrexham-home-guard-photographed-outside-the-drill-hall-poyser-street-wrexham/|title=1941 - Wrexham home guard photographed outside the drill hall Poyser Street Wrexham|publisher=Wrexham History|accessdate=20 August 2017}} 5. ^{{cite book|last1=Glover|first1=Michael|last2=Riley|first2=Jonathan|title=That Astonishing Infantry': The History of The Royal Welch Fusiliers 1689-2006|url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=vnZ-AwAAQBAJ&pg=PA234&lpg=PA234&dq=Wrexham+drill+hall&source=bl&ots=8-SsLxUibH&sig=8DtrUWugEnXN_N5s2CybvMp4zEY&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi7zJvZ6-bVAhXLKsAKHZ5_D144HhDoAQg8MAQ#v=onepage&q=Wrexham%20drill%20hall&f=false|publisher=Pen and Sword|year=1989|isbn=978-1-84415-653-5|page=234}} 2 : Buildings and structures in Wrexham County Borough|Drill halls in Wales |
