- Flintshire Observer Mining Journal and General Advertiser for the Counties of Flint Denbigh 22/04/1915: The Chairman said that during the year he had hoped to have the pleasure of opening a new fire station, which would have been useful to the town and also very ornamental second to none in the Principality. However, they had still got the scheme on paper, and there was a time coming when they would carry it out and have a grand first-class fire station.
