The Memorial Community Hall was erected in 1922 by the Township of Percy to honour those local veterans who served King and Country during WWI.
There is a memorial plaque located inside the marble vestibule. Unfortunayely, the Hall was closed on the date we visited.
The memorial cenotaph was erected after WWII and lists veterans who died in both World Wars.
The Hall originally housed the town library and a meeting hall. The library expanded to the entire building and remained here until moving to the former Percy Township offices.
