About this space

The Upper Hall is a light-filled community hall defined by tall, open proportions.

Design: An airy interior features a white-painted pitched ceiling with exposed timber trusses, tall windows that admit generous daylight, mid-height painted panelling and a polished timber floor.

Features: A fixed PA system and speakers support announcements and background music. Wi‑Fi is available and the main space has a clear central floor suitable for a dance area. The venue allows external music and DJs while enforcing a noise restriction; accessible toilets and level access support wheelchair users.

Ideal for: Community groups and private organisers seeking a practical, flexible space for seated meals or relaxed standing receptions.

What guests say: The venue is warm, unhurried and spacious. The seating arrangements vary to support both social seating and work-friendly layouts, and the staff are welcoming.
