The Village Hall is situated at the heart of the village in Butt Lane. In 2011 it underwent a major refurbishment with the demolition of some of the old facilities and the rebuild of a kitchen, bar and servery and a storeroom. This was achieved with grants from several charitable trusts and funders and significant donations from the local population. (Full detail can be seen under Refurbishment Project.)
It is the only community centre in the village and benefits from being of considerable size for a small village. It is very adaptable allowing a wide variety of activities - social, educational, religious, sporting and ceremonial - to take place. It is also used for a wide variety of meetings, both for the village and regional conference meetings.
The Village Hall is available for rent for any of the above range of meetings.
The larger room is ideal for children’s parties with lots of space for running around. It can also accommodate wedding receptions, charity functions and large family celebrations.
The smaller room (The Memorial Room) is a good size for meetings and smaller gatherings.
The modern kitchen is spacious and fully equipped with an electric catering range, a professional 4 minute dishwasher, water boiler, hot cupboard, microwave oven, 2 fridges and a freezer, all suitable for professional caterers. There is also glassware, crockery and cutlery for over 80 people.
The hire charges include use of heating and electricity.
