Welcome to St John Village Hall

Our Village Hall was built in 1926, and provides a focus for the village community, as well as many friends who come to our functions from neighbouring parishes.

Located in the beautiful conservation area of St John, in 2021 the Village Hall benefitted from a substantial grant from the National Lottery Community Fund which enabled a significant enhancement to this beautiful contemporary building, originally built in 1926. Retaining the original features of the lovely 110m2 pine clad main hall with stage, a new 40m2 Annexe looks south out over our field to the hills in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which make this a venue full of character yet boasting the latest in modern facilities providing a focus for the village community, as well as many friends from neighbouring parishes.
