The Village Hall has now reached the end of its economic life. The trustees have been advised that any money spent on repair and improvement would not be cost effective in the long term. The walls and roof contain asbestos and the buildings to the rear both need re-roofing along with other repairs. The recommendation of Chartered Surveyors was to source funding to replace the building with a new one of more conventional construction using better insulation materials.

Planning permission to demolish it and build a new Village Hall was granted by Wiltshire Council on 13 March 2024.

We are at the early stage of costing the rebuild but estimates are around the £1.2 million region. No commitment to any contracts will be made until sufficient funding is in place. We may decide to split the full rebuild into phases, but each phase will be fully funded before any work commences.
