Wrexham, in the 1990s evidence was discovered of a small Roman settlement at Wrexham. However the modern town grew up in the Middle Ages. Wrexham was first mentioned in writing in the 12th century. At the beginning of the 13th century the Lord of the Manor gave some of the land in the village to an abbey. After that Wrexham was split into 2 parts. One part was Wrexham Abbot (which lives on in the name Abbot Street). The other part was Wrexham Regis (of the king).

However Wrexham was no more than a village until the late 14th century when it became a small town. In the year 1391 Wrexham was given the right to hold a market and a fair. In the Middle Ages fairs were like markets but they were held only once a year. People would come from all over Clwyd and Cheshire to buy and sell at a Wrexham fair.

The population of Medieval Wrexham is not known but it was probably only several hundred. Wrexham would seem tiny to us but settlements were very small in those days.

The parish church of St Giles was built in 1492. Its famous steeple was completed in 1506.

In 1603 a grammar school was founded in Wrexham. Furthermore in the 17th century wool was woven and fulled in Wrexham. After wool was woven it was cleaned and thickened by pounding it in a mixture of clay and water. This was called fulling. After it dried the wool was dyed.

In 1642 came civil war between king and parliament. There was no actual fighting in the town of Wrexham. At first the whole of Wales was in royalist hands but on 9 November 1643 a parliamentary army captured Wrexham. There was no resistance.

In the 18th century Wrexham was known for its leather industry. There were skinners and tanners in the town. The horns from cattle were used to make things like combs and buttons. There was also a nail making industry in Wrexham. However in the mid-18th century Wrexham was no more than a small market town with a population of perhaps 2,000.

n the late 18th century Wrexham was transformed by the coming of the industrial revolution. It began when the famous entrepreneur John Wilkinson (1728-1808) known as ‘Iron Mad Wilkinson’ opened Bersham iron foundry in 1762. In 1793 he opened a smelting plant at Brymbo.

In 1801, the population of Wrexham was 2,575. By the standards of the time it was a small market town. Wrexham grew rapidly in the 19th century. By 1841 the population reached 5,854. By 1881 it was 10,903.

In the early 19th century the old wool industry died out. However Wrexham’s other industries boomed. In the 19th century coal mining in the vicinity prospered. Bersham colliery was sunk in the 1860s. In 1880 an explosion in the colliery killed 9 men.

In the 19th century Wrexham was famous for brewing. A German first brewed lager in Wrexham in 1880. Wrexham also had a large leather industry in the 19th century. Other industries were steel and brick making.

Meanwhile during the 19th century amenities in Wrexham improved. Wrexham gained gas light in 1827. The first hospital in Wrexham opened in Wrexham in 1833. It was called the Dispensary but in 1838 it was renamed the Infirmary.
