A village hall serving 300 people in Chippenham has been reopened by MP James Gray after a £30,000 makeover.

The Community Hall at North Wraxall, formerly known as The New Hall, was reopened and renamed by the North Wiltshire MP on Saturday following months of refurbishment.

As the village hall for the communities of North Wrax-all, Ford, Upper Wraxall, The Shoe and Mountain Bower, it serves more than 300 villagers and is used for everything from the screening of live sports matches to the church’s harvest supper.

Anyone interested in hiring the hall should call Tim Miller on (01225) 891543 or email tim.miller@wrap.org.uk
