At the committee meeting on Monday the preschool group organiser described how the Village Hall was flooded last Thursday. Water came in through the back door because the drains were unable to cope. The rooms at the back and the small hall were flooded for a while but they have nearly dried out now. The committee decided that it would be difficult to install another soakaway drain and so it was decided to keep sandbags and a board in the cleaning cupboard for use should there be similar downfall again.
The smaller hall will have a new decor in the autumn as it is going to be painted in apricot and cream. A new flat roof is going to be put on the kitchen.
