Lounge is not easy to access in a wheelchair as it is a few steps down from the main level of our building. (A portable ramp is available).

Main Hall

Holds 60+ for a sit-down meal, more for a meeting or lecture. The Hall can be divided into two halves each holding around 45 people lecture style. There are two projection screens in this room. One end gives access to Lounge and Stage. One end gives access to Church. A hatch allows standing access to the kitchen adjacent.

Stage

The stage can be available for amateur drama rehearsals, but may need to be booked with at least half the Hall to allow access.

Church

The Sanctuary / Worship Area can be available for Concerts and other musical events. We have a Baby Grand Piano and a Two Manual Pipe Organ in the Church. There is seating for around 150, increasing to 200. More people can be accommodated by opening up into the Hall, to give a capacity of around 500 people seated, most of whom will have an uninterrupted view.

Kitchen / Catering

The kitchen is fully equipped with all that you should require for light refreshments, or meals for up to 60 people. Hirers need to provide their own consumables. (Tea/Coffee/Milk/Biscuits). There is a small shared fridge but no freezer. There is a large industrial stove and an industrial dishwasher which takes about 15 minutes per cycle. There is a large area of worktop, twin sinks with drainers, plus a hand wash basin. There are independent hatches to allow serving into the Lounge and/or Hall.

Technology

We do not provide a laptop or projector. Projector stands, screens and cables are available for your use if required. Rooms have curtains. Wi-Fi is available by prior agreement, and an access code will be provided if requested.
