Description
LLB1 - Large stone built Victorian village hall – suggested that this was previously a Wesleyan Chapel. Large double height feature windows divided into small panes on front elevation. A possible later addition built of the same material can be found on the right end of the front façade. Extension is relatively sympathetic – matching materials, subordinate. Windows appear original – although some show evidence of deterioration.
