Description

What a Fantastic New Resource locally!

Got out on the bike on Sunday morning with the intention of taking a picture or two of the new village hall at Treswell that I drive past everyday. It looks very impressive and whilst I was admiring it I had the pleasure of bumping into Derek Farr whose dog was scampering round the block chasing a weasel of all things!

Whilst talking to Derek he was good enough to show me inside the new building and I have to say it is a great achievement for all involved. As far as Village Halls go it is very much” state of the art” and will be suitable for all kinds of events both on a personal level and commercially.

The function room is fantastic with a lovely bar, high end music systems and lighting. A stage that would suit amateur productions and seats for 100 people. The kitchen is very well kitted out to cater for 100 people too.

Derek was keen to stress many people had helped and the project had attracted funding from The Big Lottery Fund, Waste Recycling Environmental Network, Wilkinsons, Nottinghamshire County Council, Bassetlaw District Council, EDF Energy and the Low Carbon Buildings Programme.

Heated from a Ground Source System of three, 60 metre deep bore holes the building should be warm all year around using sustainable energy resources. Of course there will be overheads and Derek said all involved were keen to promote the great facility and hope that it will attract sufficient patronage to keep it going as it should.

Well done to everybody involved!
