The Parish Hall After several years of fund raising the Hall was built and opened in September 1957. It consisted of a main hall with a stage, toilets and kitchen facilities. In 1962 an extension was added providing a much larger kitchen and room for a snooker table that is still used today. During the 1980’s a store room was added and the toilet facilities were improved to meet with new regulations. During the last few years there has been a huge effort to upgrade and improve all parts of the building and grounds in order to provide better facilities including: 1998. A sound system including a loop for the hard of hearing installed 1999.
