Barn Centre News
Update: 4th December 2020:
The Barn Centre is open for hire!
The government regulations under Tier 2 allow community halls to re-open starting Wednesday 2nd December. They can be used for a variety of activities so long as certain health and safety precautions are in place.
Each hirer – the Responsible Person, will do a risk assessment which takes into account the ways people are to be kept safe.
You should report if you feel at all unwell.
Your contact details must be provided.
You will be expected to use hand sanitiser when you arrive or thoroughly hand wash for 20 seconds.
You must wear a face mask unless there is a mitigating reason such as your health, exercising or eating and drinking.
You will need to bring your own refreshments and not share.
You must stay socially distanced and may be allocated a specific place in the hired room, this may limit group numbers.
You must not socialise i.e. be close to other people and leave promptly after the activity.
The exit should be separate from the entry door to maintain a one way system and where possible there should be plenty of ventilation.
Classes or groups should only consist of existing members, new participants are not allowed at present.

The old barn next to the Church was converted in the 1980s to provide rooms for church use and for the local community. It is a much loved and well used resource. Accommodation includes a well equipped kitchen, a small coffee room, a library used for our administrative officer and for small groups and toilets. The Cart Lodge is a spacious ground floor room opening onto the patio and regularly rented out for yoga and pilates as well as for family gatherings, lunches and suppers. Additionally there is a beamed, upstairs room ideal for meetings though not accessible for those with limited mobility. There is ample car parking but with hours of use restricted to 8.30am through to 11.00pm.
