Centenary Celebration - Eydon Village Hall is 100 this year

We are celebrating the centenary of Eydon Village Hall 1926 - 2026 with an exhibition and the launch of our latest booklet. It will take place on Friday 17th April from 2 - 6pm and Saturday 18th April from 10 - 2pm. The plaque which marks the centenary will be unveiled at noon on the 18th April with celebratory glasses of fizz and canapes!

Tea and cakes will be available to purchase throughout the exhibition which is one of a series of events being held throughout the year in celebration of the centenary.

Villages like Eydon depend on public spaces like village halls, public houses, schools and church meeting rooms. The history of the village hall is far more than the acquisition of a site and the construction of a building – it is almost the history of the village and the activities of its inhabitants.
