village hall
Hamstead Marshall
Hamstead Marshall Village Hall was built
in 1895 as a village school, converting to community use in
1933. Since then it has undergone numerous refurbishments to
instal modern facilities. However the original Victorian charm
has been retained.
A high ceiling and a large north window
give the main hall a light and airy feel. It measures 17-feet
by 30-feet, and can take 40-50 people. There is also an
entrance lobby with coat hooks, a fully fitted kitchen, a rear
lobby with storage, and toilets with nappy-changing facilities.
Heating is by wall-mounted infra-red units. All areas have
disabled access. Outside there is a car park and outdoor play
area.
