What 3 Words: crafts flush curious
The Hall was designed in 1906 by Frank W. Troup, a prominent architect in the Arts and Crafts Movement, as a memorial to Alfred Capper Pass. It was built for the benefit of the residents of Wootton Fitzpaine and is a listed building. After the 1st World War, a chiming clock was placed on the roof of the Hall as a memorial to the men of the village who died fighting for their country.
The Hall has a kitchen, oil-fired central heating, and a stage with curtains. There is a small grass playground outside with swings and a roundabout. There is a large car park behind the Hall adjoining the village playing field. The hall is accessible to those in wheelchairs and there is a disabled persons’ toilet, as well as recently re-fitted unisex toilets.
