The building was originally used as the village school. It was opened in 1878. The 1899 photo above shows the children who attended the school at that time. You can see the school educated both boys and girls from about five to 14 years of age.
Over the years the upkeep of the Village Hall has fallen on the residents of the village who have purchased carpets, electrical items and drapery for the building.
The proceeds of our Craft Fair next month will go towards the purchase of fabric to make new curtains for the hall.
