The Neville Hall – Waltham St Lawrence
The Neville Hall was originally a copyhold cottage held of the Manor of
Waltham St Lawrence. Its history can be traced back through the Manorial
Rolls to 1676 when it was called ‘Westbies’. However, the property is
probably much older and now takes its names from a previous owner.
Formally a school, in 1913 the Hall was sold to the Parish Council and
became known as Neville Hall in memory of the Revd and Hon Grey Neville.
In 1967 the adjoining cottage was acquired and amalgamated with the Hall.
Over the years extensive alterations have been made to the Neville Hall to
keep abreast of the needs of the parish. The hall has been modernised, the
building extended and the car park enlarged. These works have been funded by
grants and donations.
In 2002 it was decided that the Neville Hall should be run by a
charitable trust and was registered with the Charity Commissioners enabling
the hall to have charitable status and be administered by Trustees.
Specification
The hall comprises two main areas, the entrance hall which is
approximately 25 square metres and the main hall, approximately 85 square
metres.
There is also a fully functional kitchen, male, female and disabled
toilets and a small outside courtyard adjoining the car park.
