Mark Pawsey MP cut the rope and Rev Martin Faulkner offered a blessing - and then joined villagers for a viewing of the hall.

"We are grateful to Veolia Environmental Trust for their award of £46,073 which enabled the refurbishment to be carried out," said the village hall committee.

"The hall is now available for events and hiring and our next item is a ‘Chicken Foot evening’ on October 14."
