Description

The village hall on Trent Lane has been at the heart of village life for over 90 years and yet there are many people living in Burton Joyce and Bulcote who have never been inside.
The hall was originally built through the efforts of the local Women’s Institute. They had been fundraising for several years in order to purchase a hut for their meetings. When they had accumulated £300 - about £14,000 at todays value, they approached local landowner Roger Hearnshaw for permission to erect their hut on a piece of his land.
Mr Hearnshaw refused but said that if they continued to raise money, he would donate a piece of land together with £100 - so that they could build a small hall to be used by the whole community.
In November 1925, the hall was opened at a cost of around £3000, which is around £175,000 at todays prices.

The hall hosts choir and brass band concerts, plays, quizzes and a pantomime. There is an art group, zumba and pilates classes, ballroom dancing, as well as dozens of groups organised by the Burton Joyce and District U3A. So, come on down to the village hall – there’s sure to be something there for you.
