Description

The Village Hall is a single-storey building constructed from corrugated iron, featuring a pitched roof. It has a broad six-bay front, with the end bays extending as balancing outshut porches. The hall includes four-pane, top-hung windows, and the porches also have four-pane windows. Boarded doors are located on the inner sides of the porches. There is a later addition of a corrugated iron lean-to on the left end. The right end has two windows flanking paired planked doors. At the rear, there is a timber extension on the right with a pitched corrugated iron roof, and a rendered toilet block to the left.

The War Memorial features dwarf stone walls with decorative iron half-railings, recessed at the center with an elaborate cast iron arch from 1925. This arch serves as the War Memorial. It is flanked by square openwork piers with crested overthrows and bronze plaques on the heads and sides, along with paired high iron gates. To the left, there is a simpler pair of iron gates with posts marked "T.Jones and Sons, Priory Foundry, Carmarthen. Coronation 1902." A datestone from 1924 is located to the right of the entry.

Inside, the hall has an unusual architectural design with boarded walls and a boarded wagon roof featuring thin ribs and a moulded wooden cornice. There are four-panelled doors throughout.
