Government eases restrictions on village halls

Our fine refurbished village hall, with offers users two separate halls, a garden and terrace, may be able to partly re-open sometime in the next few weeks or months.

The Government has published new guidance on halls on which the Trustees are currently taking advice. Gatherings of up to 30 people are to be allowed, including meetings, but anti-Covid measures including cleaning will need to be in place. So far exercise classes are not allowed.

It may also be possible to re-open the hall for viewings shortly. Before lockdown the hall was very well-booked most weekends in spring and summer and is particularly popular for weddings and other family functions.

Two events in the autumn and winter currently remain in the diary. A comedy night in October and the return of popular music duo Ninebarrow in December.

For more details please contact the hall’s acting bookings manager, Gilly Lea.
