Gilling East Village Hall was the former village school in Gilling before it was reborn in 2010 as our village hall. Little-used for many years, the ownership of the building was uncertain and it fell into disrepair. However, legal issues were eventually resolved so that the Church is now able to lease the building to the Gilling Village Hall Management Committee for community use. Longstanding tenants of part of the building, but mostly concerned with their model railway track in the grounds, the Ryedale Society of Model Engineers has also formalised its occupancy of the site.
A programme of refurbishment works have resulted in the fantastic building we have now. The building is heated by ground source underfloor heating. All the windows have been replaced with double glazed units and work continues to make the building as user friendly as possible. The hall has been refurbished using professionals and a lot of volunteer hours from members of the local community.
The Gilling Village Hall Management Committee is registered as a charity (Charity number 1118724) and details of our management committee can be found here.
