Already a firm favourite with many local organisations and indoor sports groups, the light and airy double glazed Hall is the heartbeat of the community.
The Hall features a sprung wooden floor, black—out curtains, small lighting rig for stage presentations, a large double entrance door (from the foyer) and emergency exit at the far end of the building. The Hall is linked to the well-equipped kitchen by a serving hatch with closing door as required. There is capacity for 80 people with tables and 100 people with chairs only.
The Hall already hosts such diverse groups as Badminton, Table Tennis, Indoor Bowls, Horticultural Societies, WI, Mothers Union, and Keep Fit sessions.

There is capacity for 25 people with tables and chairs and 35 people with chairs only.
It has separate access from the main foyer and also bookable with use of the modern kitchen facilities.
