ROOM HIRE

The large schoolroom hall off Hill Street, the small Guildroom (off the main hall), with use of the kitchen, are available for hire by the general public, when not required by the church. Currently, the large hall is used on a regular basis by 2 badminton groups, a fencing club & a karate club, amongst other organisations. It is also popular as a venue for children's parties (but sorry, no teenage parties) The newly altered and refurbished annex now offers a medium-sized hall, useful for meetings.
