Heating
This is not included in the hire charge. £1 coins will be needed to feed the meters.
Telephone
A land-line telephone has been installed, for safety and convenience, as mobile reception is very poor in this area. We ask that all calls are paid for except those to emergency services – these are exempt. There is an honesty jar marked ‘Telephone Money’ next to the phone.
Location of telephone:
In the tall, narrow cupboard in the lobby, just to the left of the main front entrance.
Telephone Number: 01981 580205

This may include kitchen appliances, amplifiers and other P.A. (Personal Address) equipment. The event organiser takes responsibility for all electrical devices used apart from those mentioned above.
The Hall has a valid performing rights licence
