Lydney Town Hall
On the corner of Church Street and High Street. The Town Hall's website records that in the 1880s a group of businessmen saw a need for a centre of entertainment for the people of Lydney and district.
In 1888, they formed Lydney Town Hall Limited. The keystone was laid on December 15th 1888. The building was completed within a year.
During the First World War the Town Hall was used as the headquarters of a hospital for sick and wounded soldiers. It was manned by Gloucestershire Voluntary Aid Detachment No. 102 and was open from October 28th 1914 until the end of February 1919 during which period 3,048 cases were treated.
In 1957 Lydney Town Council became the custodians and managers of the Town Hall.
In 2012, management of the hall was transferred to the Lydney Town Hall Trust Management Committee.
