The Force is strong as Star Wars-inspired show beams into Wrexham schools
A Star Wars-inspired show has been beamed live to schools across Wrexham, Flintshire and Denbighshire. The Make Some Noise Band, from the North Wales Music Cooperative, was joined by Darth Vader and Princess Leia for a lightsaber duel during its most recent dramatic performance. Based at the cooperative’s headquarters in Denbigh, the 11-piece band is touring to inspire children to enjoy music, take up an instrument and learn to sing. The dramatic performance, which featured a rendition of the Imperial March, was part of a series of concerts being beamed live to 150 primary schools and played live at 23 secondary schools across the three counties.

David Barnard has registered two #OnePlaceStudies with us, both of places in Wales: Llwydcoed One-Place Study in Glamorgan and Castle View, Pensarn One-Place Study in Denbighshire. #OnePlaceWednesday
Llwydcoed One-Place Study. Image: An extract from an old, large scale Ordnance Survey map showing the dispersed settlement of Llwydcoed, with buildings, roads, railway lines, field boundaries, wooded areas, and old mining pits. The largest settlement, to the North, is Tre-Gibbon, with its own school and chapel. In the South-east corner of the map extract is Moriah Place, with a chapel and a pub named the Miners' Arms. The only church, dedicated to St James, stands alone at a road junction. Elsewhere, there is Llwydcoed Farm on the West side of the map extract, Llwydcoed Station on the railway, between the church and Tre-Gibbon, Llwydcoed House on the Southern edge of the map.

ELLIS – In memory of Private R. A. (Arthur) Ellis (K.L.R.), who made the supreme sacrifice August 9, 1916. (Fondly remembered.) – Blod. georgefergusonliverpool.wordpress.com/2026/09/23/2...
Part of an official record – a descriptive return of a soldier in the Denbighshire Hussars Yeomanry Squadron who wanted a transfer to the Liverpool Scottish for the purpose of joining and serving with that battalion. The record was for Private R. A. Ellis, number 1389, who had served at that point for two months, since 10 June 1915 and was signed up for the duration of the war. He was 34 years and 184 days old, he was 5 foot 11.5 inches tall, his chest girth when fully expanded was 35 inches.
