PIRTON VILLAGE HALLWe are very lucky to have such a great Village Hall and have to thank our predecessors for their efforts back in the late 1920s for planning so well, all those who have looked after it since and for the committee members responsible for the £200,000 plus modernisation and refurbishment, which was completed recently. The money raised from many sources including:

General description
The Village Hall is a substantial double fronted building, set back from the
High Street and served by its own driveway. The facilities were extensively
refurbished in 2003 and consist, in the main, of two rooms, left and right of
the porch and entrance hall, with the large main hall situated behind the large
foyer area. There is a large car park to the rear.
