What is recorded here

Detached multiple-bay single-storey hall, built c.1935. The building is rectangular with a full-width entrance porch to the front gable, the latter with projecting bays flanking the entrance. The walls are finished in painted roughcast. The main hall section has a gable-ended pitched roof covered in corrugated metal with a stepped parapet to the north end. The roof of the porch is hidden by its own parapet but appears to be flat. The entrance consists of a panelled timber double door. The windows are flat-headed and are largely boarded up with only small two-pane lights at the top of most of the openings. There is a large panel with moulded lettering to the front (north) gable of the main hall section. Replacement uPVC rainwater goods. The building faces onto a road but is separated from it by a relatively large sloping forecourt.
Good example of a mid 20th-century hall, with mild Art Deco influences. The building is generally well preserved though the windows have been largely boarded up.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
