The church
hall was built in 1994. It is entered through
a corridor from both the church and the outside
and, as there are no steps or slopes, there
is perfect wheelchair access. The main hall
is large (approximately 7.5 x 13.75 metres)
and the smaller upstairs room is about 5 metres
square. |
 |
There are tables and chairs for both children
and adults and there is also a piano.
There are several toilets including one for
the disabled.
|
|
| The
main hall has an adjoining well-equipped kitchen,
with electric cooker, fridge, microwave, plus
crockery and cutlery for 50-100 people.
There are also wine glasses to welcome friends
at our big occasions as well as electric kettles
to help supply endless cups of coffee and tea.

Upstairs,
there is an extra room with its own small
kitchenette. There are tables and chairs for
both children and adults.
This room is used for meetings, young people,
etc.
|
| Outside,

lawn.
There is also a small car park for six cars
and plenty of street parking.

The
hall is available for lets up until 11 pm
for parties and social functions, classes,
clubs and charitable fund raising events.
St. James's Church groups benefit from its
ambience at Parish Breakfast on Sunday mornings
and charity soup lunches.
Other regular users are the Nursery School,
the Keep Fit Class, children's dance classes,
the Fuchsia Society and the New Endeavour
club for older people. There are also further
lets, often for children's parties.

The hall committee manage the hall and ensure
that it continues to be a valuable resource,
as well as a useful source of income, for the
parish.
