Our History

Previously a school now the hub of the community

Our traditional village hall dates back to 1859 when it was a former schoolroom, adjoined to the schoolmasters house which is now a private residence. After the school was closed on the 25th March 1970, the building became a village hall for the community, run as a charity by a committee of volunteers.
