Stratford Reading Room is superbly situated in the Avon Valley,
below Old Sarum opposite St Lawrence Church, next to its own
generous car park. Full refurbishment is now complete, preserving
the ambience of a late Victorian village hall in the Romantic
tradition but with modern standards of comfort and services
including wide door access and disabled toilet. The hall has
space for up to 60 persons at a fully seated function. It
is 11.5m long and 6.5m wide. A new fully-equipped kitchen
(2.5m x 5.5m) has been installed. A green space has been preserved
at the front and side of the hall and it faces on to a generous
gravelled all-weather car park.
The Reading Room is a suitable venue for conference and away
days, day centres and private parties. Hire rates, which start
at half day hire are particularly suited to private parties
and can be obtained by calling
Mrs L Batchelar (01722) 335716
Hirers must ensure that they have read and agree the Terms
and Conditions of hire.
A Safety Plan has
been prepared and users are asked to familiarise themselves
with this document before occupying the hall.
The Reading Room was built in 1881 at the instigation of
Mrs Mary King
the wife of the long serving vicar of the time. The recent
renovation should ensure that it now lasts for another 100
years.
