About Us - Edington Parish Hall is a character 19th century building that was built in 1885 for use as the Sunday School for the Priory Church. The hall has been an important part of village life for over 130 years. It is a valuable village amenity with many local groups and individuals making use of its facilities. In 2019, Phase 1 of a refurbishment and development programme was completed and this has provided an accessible toilet, baby changing facilities and an extension to the well equipped kitchen.
In early 2021 the facilities were further improved; WiFi is now available as well as a projector and drop-down screen and an induction loop system. This was funded by a grant from the National Lottery Community Fund & the Department for Digital Culture Media and Sport.
The Hall has a capacity to seat 50 for dining, 60 seated for talks and 80 for a buffet without seating; the grass area outside the hall is large enough for a small marquee.
