Welcome to Houghton Village Hall

Houghton Village Hall

Dating in part from the late 19th century the hall is a greatly appreciated community asset central to much of the village’s social life.  Used extensively by local residents and community groups from near and far. Providing an adaptable facility it is able to accommodate a variety of uses including children's parties, dances, weddings, christenings, keep fit, conferences, small business meetings.

The Hall is operated and maintained by a committee of local volunteers meetings being held monthly, with an Annual General Meeting held in April.

Regular users include  Rainbows, The Evergreens, Solway Radio Club, The Hornby Railway Club, The Flower Guild, NWR, Houghton Indoor Bowls Club, Pilates, Yoga and a monthly Farmer’s Market.

Pre-school children’s activities include a Mums and Toddlers Group, Music Makers and Art Venturers. The Hall hosts many childrens' birthday Parties and other events.
