If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

The old town hall was burned down in 1919 during the Peace Day Riots, one of the great oxymorons of our time!
Not sure of the exact year but my mum used to tell us tales of the riots and burning down of the old town hall. she was born in 1905 so I guess it must have been about 1920'ish.
