Description
The Reading Room, formerly known as the Village Hall, is a building dating from around 1830. Originally a national school, it is timber-framed and now covered in asbestos, topped with a hipped roof made of reed thatch, featuring the stump of the original stack in the rear wall. The structure has a single room layout and is a single storey. On the front, there are two windows, each with two fixed lights and lozenge-shaped glazing bars, positioned on either side of a doorway that has a moulded architrave. The original six-panelled door remains intact. Inside, the fireplace surround is also from the same period.
