Payhembury Parish Hall

Payhembury Parish Hall was only opened in 2008 and is a lovely building with a large hall, smaller committee room and fully equipped kitchen. Many regular activities take place there and it is available to hire for all sorts of occasions.

This year will see some changes in the Parish Hall, with greater engagement and use by the community at large, and better use of communications to let people know what is going on there, and what can be done there.

Di and John Somers kindly donated an attractive indoor ‘canopy’ or marquee, following its successful use at their daughter’s wedding reception in the Hall. Thanks very much John & Di ! The canopy is now included on the Parish Hall ‘menu’ of options – it really does transform the look and feel of the Hall for social events.

Please get involved and let’s keep improving and using our already amazing Hall for great events, social and private. Remember, this is a facility that belongs to all Parishioners so don’t be shy about getting involved or making suggestions (new suggestions box is in the kitchen).

All the very best,
Kevin Woof

Di and John Somers have very kindly donated this indoor ‘marquee’ canopy to the Parish Hall following their daughter’s wedding reception there. After spending some time exploring various rigging options, Kevin Wooff, Rick Jones and Kirsty Cann expect to have put the finishing touches to the canopy rigging by the time this Parish Paper is distributed. The atmosphere in the Hall will be considerably enhanced by the canopy, which will be available for hire for functions. The Hall Committee, on behalf of the residents of Payhembury, extend sincere thanks and warm wishes to Di and John Somers for their generous […]

Green Payhembury

April 7th, 2014

Even more reason to be cheerful when the sun comes out!……. Parish Hall In March you may see activity in, around and on the Parish Hall. On Thursday 13th March, Rudge Renewables started to fit a 40-panel 10kWp Solar Photovoltaic system on the south side of the roof which will generate electricity whenever the sun shines (or even when a cloudy sky is reasonably bright). The Parish Hall Committee has invested approximately £14,000 of the community’s funds into this project, with the following benefits in mind: The anticipated financial benefit is just under £2,000 a year, meaning that the investment […]
