The church built a new halls block in the 1960s and, since then, refurbishment work and maintenance has ensured that the facilities have been kept in good order.
The halls block has three floors and, during the redevelopment of our halls in 2013/14, a lift was installed to help the less mobile access all floors easily.
On the lower ground floor there are several small rooms including the minister’s vestry and a large, multi-functional, open-plan space we call the fellowship room.
Fellowship Room
Vestry
On the ground floor there are two halls – the Small Hall and the Large Hall.
Small Hall
The Large Hall is big enough for badminton (just), dances, concerts and larger meetings.
The kitchen is also on the ground floor with a serving hatch through to the Small Hall. (We also have tea/coffee making facilities on the upper floor and lower ground floor.)
Church kitchen
Upstairs there is another hall, the Ross Room (which is a small meeting room) and the former flat. This was originally used by a live-in caretaker. We no longer employ a caretaker and these rooms are now used by our Junior Church. (We use contract cleaners to clean our premises.)
Upper Hall
Ross Room
Upper Floor coffee-making area
There are toilets on all floors, including accessible toilets on the ground floor, a shower-room on the lower ground floor and “baby changing” facilities on the lower ground floor and upper floor.
