Description
The Village Hall, built in 1889, is a village hall constructed from coursed rubble stone with ashlar dressings and a Bridgwater tile roof. It is a single-storey building designed in a heavily detailed Gothic style, featuring plate-traceried windows that create three gables along the eaves. The larger central gable has a three-light pointed window, while the smaller side gables each have two-light windows positioned above doors. There are shouldered two-light windows on either side of the central window. The hall is supported by six shallow buttresses that rise from a coped plinth. A stone eaves band with carved stops runs along the top. The doors are topped with shallow flat hoods on curved brackets, which carry ball finials. A notable feature is the plate-traceried three-light window at the south end. Originally built as the Oddfellows Hall, it is included for its group value.
