The Hall

The Village Hall was purpose built in 1954 as a memorial hall that was funded by local people. The building has recently been extensively refurbished and modernised and its size and layout make it an ideal venue for private and public events and functions. The hall has been awarded Hallmark 3, the highest quality standard for Village Halls.

The hall is available for hire for community activities in either the main hall or the smaller supper/meeting room or in both. It has a stage for productions, plays and concerts in addition to the usual social, recreational and committee meeting activities. The refurbished separate kitchen is available to all hirers free of charge.

Regular activities at the hall include Staindrop and District Young Farmers Club, Lunch Club, Tea and Chat, Gentle Exercise Class and Art Class.
