Dry Doddington Village Hall

Dry Doddington Village Hall Dry Doddington Village Hall for use by the community and out laying districts for events and activity

Dry Doddington Village Hall is charity run by committee members - Peter Stenton-Guest, Chair; Lynne Stenton-Guest; Rachel Pygott; Rob Pygott; Dan Smith; Rebecca Lett. Dry Doddinton is a beautiful, quaint village, steeped in history, the village hall is part of ‘The Triangle’ with the other two vertices being:

The Wheatsheaf Inn (www.thewheatsheafinndrydoddington.com), with real ales a good selection of wines and spirits, pub food classics, lovely log fire, beer garden and children's play area, plus they’re dog friendly! St James Church - a beautiful and very interesting church, it actually leans more than the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy - 3.97 degrees vs 5.1 degrees!! It is a Grade II listed building dating from the 12th century, with an early 14th-century tower and is very quaint and loved by the village. The committee are 100% focused on repairing and ensuring the hall is safe and comfortable. We also thank everyone that supports the hall and has played a part in making it what it is, an important community hub of Dry Doddington.
