Saith Seren
Saith Seren (Welsh for 'Seven Stars'; its former name) is a Welsh-language community centre and pub in Wrexham, North Wales. Located on the corner of Chester Street and Lambpit Street, the Grade II listed building dates to 1898, as a rebuilding of a previous pub located on the site. The rebuilt building was designed by Liverpool architect Thomas Price, who designed the building in a commercial style, incorporating elements of the Arts and Crafts style. The two-storey building is made of Ruabon red brick, and Price also designed the building adjacent, the former Empire Music Hall. The building operated as the Seven Stars pub until 2011. A few months later, plans were announced to reopen the building as a community-run Welsh-language community centre and pub. The new centre opened as Saith Seren (Welsh for 'Seven Stars') in January 2012, under a lease from a new landlord. The landlord pressured the centre to close in 2015 over unmet finances, but community support raised enough funds to keep it open. The community co-operative running the centre, Canolfan Gymraeg Wrecsam, purchased the building in 2023.
