History
|
|
|
|
- The
Hall was requested and planned in the early post World
War 2 years as a central amenity for village life. It
replaced two demolished delapidated cottages on the
south side of Church Street close to St Beuno's Church
and Pendref cottage.
- The
foundation stone was laid in 1957 and the hall opened
in 1958 by Councillor J.O.Williams.
- The
hall was extended in 1995 by the addition of meeting /
store rooms to the side.
- Its
60th Birthday was celebrated in 2018.
Thanks to recent Chairperson Mike Wilson for all his
efforts in promoting hall events and obtaining grants
for refurbishment.
- In
2019 it was refurbished and came to include a public
and disabled toilet, an emergency defribrillator, new
car parking area, and an internal shower room. It now
has new fire doors, external and internal re-painting,
new external notice boards and new village signage.
(Also, thanks to Colin Goodgrooves for the new Hall
