The original Strome Memorial Hall was built in 1920 to serve as a memorial to the village's war dead and as a community gathering place. Fifteen men from the Strome district lost their lives in the First World War, a devastating loss to a community of less than 300 people. The hall was destroyed by fire on September 28, 1935.

Construction of the current hall began less than three weeks later. A brick chimney on the north elevation and a gable-roofed shed slightly to the south of the hall are the sole remaining elements of the original 1920 building. Two bronze plaques, bearing the names of the district's fallen soldiers from the First and Second World Wars are affixed to the Hall on either side of the front vestibule.

The Strome Memorial Hall is now the home of Sodbusters Archives Museum.

The Stirling cenotaph design was a combined effort between Mayor Trevor Lewington and Mr. Jim Mulock from Lethbridge Monumental Ltd. The cenotaph commemorates those who fell in both World Wars as well as recognizes those who served from our community and returned. It is the first cenotaph in the community and was dedicated and officially unveiled to the community on November 11, 2021.

The stone is a black granite sourced from India. The engraving was completed in Quebec with the final finishing and installation completed by Lethbridge Monumental Ltd.
