Flaxton Village Hall

Flaxton Village Hall first opened on 10th October 1928.

You can read more about the story of the Hall which has been derived from a handwritten minute book and supporting information found in other archive materials.

There is an abridged version which summarises the story of the Village Hall but does not provide the transcribed minutes The Flaxton Village Hall Story Summary.

The full story including minutes The Story of Flaxton Village Hall.

A transcript of the deeds for the land can be found in The Village Hall Land Deeds.

We are currently producing a transcript of the minutes from The Village Hall Committees which oversaw the running of the Hall between 1941 and 1989. The initial draft with a summary Village Hall Committee Minutes – 1941 to 1989

Flaxton Community Trust

Your Village Hall is managed by the Flaxton Community Trust on behalf of the community. The Trust is a charity (number 1187370) which was formed in January 2020 and brought together two charitable trusts, namely:

The Flaxton Institute was Registered in 1987 and was responsible for the management and operation of the current Hall on behalf of the community. Its funds were transferred to the Flaxton Community Trust.

The Flaxton Old School Trust was formed in 2001 to manage the proceeds from the sale of Flaxton School which had closed in August 1987. The remaining proceeds from the sale were transferred to the Flaxton Community Trust.
