The Hall is an asset to the village and is available to hire -- from village Quiz Nights to entertainment events to wedding receptions and parties. 

There is a full-sized main hall with wooden flooring, a stage separate lounge area with a dividing doorway which separates it from the main hall.  A fully equipped kitchen and bar servery area opens on to the lounge area.  There is an entrance lobby with toilets.  Large car park adjacent with lighting.

We already have some established clubs using the hall but we do have room for more.  We also need people with a bit of time to spare, who are able to join our group of Trustee's: being a Trustee will cost you nothing but your time.
