Wimblington Parish Hall

The Parish Hall has served the village well for almost 100 years.  The Parish Council of the time borrowed £400 from the Local Government Board in order to provide the parish with a room which could be utilized for all kinds of public gatherings.  Land in Addison Road, owned by the Rev. Joseph Hill was bought for £25 and the building costs were estimated at £320.  The loan was to be repaid in installments spread over a number of years.

The hall was built of white bricks from the yards of the Northern Brick Company of Eye, Peterborough, the arches being rubbed and gauged, relieved with a few courses of ornamental red brick.  A foundation stone at the front of the building contains the names of the parish council at the time.

Opened on 29th May 1905 in the centre of the village it has been used for a variety of activities throughout the years.  It is run by the parish council for dancing sessions, short mat bowls, bingo, council meetings and wedding receptions etc holding over 100 people.  It has a large main hall, a smaller meetings room, a kitchen, toilets and disable toilet and a car park which will hold 20 - 25 cars.  Bookings are made through the booking clerk Mrs Margaret Moulton on 01354 740520.
