Village Hall Update

We are delighted to announce that the Village Hall now has a bike shelter, positioned towards the back of the carpark. It will hold up to 8 bikes and is in a location which is covered by lights and the CCTV system at the Hall.

A huge thanks to the members of New Life Church for installing this and for the many other jobs they carried out as part of the ‘Bristol Noise’ weekend. These included weeding and replanting the flower beds, painting the side fence and gate, building a new flower trough, removal of the old tables from the Hall and assembling new ones, with the old tables being given to Frenchay Museum and North Bristol Foodbank.

We are really pleased to see that several of our regular groups have been able to return to using the Hall albeit with restricted numbers and social distancing. This hopefully marks the start of a return to social gatherings and activities in the Hall which are so important for every community.

Finally the Committee has recently commissioned a full structural and design survey of the Hall so that we can start planning improvements to it, making use of the community sum payable by Redrow under the planning agreement.
