Holne village hall history

At the heart of the village, the Hall was originally built in 1835 as a school with a thatched roof, later enlarged and slated, and used as such until 1946. From then until 1951 it was in the care and ownership of the Church and only used for occasional meetings.

In 1952, after refurbishment, the building was opened as a Village Hall and, after a lease of 21 years, the Church agreed to sell the Hall to the Village Hall Management Committee, a registered charity.

In Sept 1998 a generous bequest was made to the Hall by John and Anne Pearce Gould, thus putting the Hall on a secure financial footing. Income is mainly derived from hire charges and regular fund raising events that occur throughout the year eg the plant sale.
