On Monday February 1st, the Church Hall was gutted by fire. The fire started about 10.30pm and was eventually put out at about 2am. The Fire Brigade and the police did all that they could to save the building. However, the damage was extensive. A large area of the roof has been destroyed, significant areas of floor, ceiling and walls have been damaged and almost all of the internal fittings and contents have been consumed by fire or damaged by water or smoke. Thankfully nobody was hurt. The cause of the fire is still under investigation but the Insurance Company have given us an indication of the cost of the options going forward.
