Hywyn Many thanks for your helpful reply. The Heroes' Memorial Archway, at University of Wales Bangor is opened to the public very occasionally. Bangor Civic Society try to open it about two days a year, including one day on or near Armistice Day. The Upper Room is panelled in wood, and inscribed with the names of the 8000 men from north Wales who were killed in the Great War. They are listed under their home parish. All north Wales counties are included (including Montgomeryshire).

I'm given to understand that it's once a year but cannot find any details. I'm also told it gives details of villages/communities other than Bangor. Is this right?
