VILLAGE HALL - There are some exciting new developments in Putley's plans for a refurbished village hall. A meeting with the architect, Trevor Hewett, followed the well attended public meeting held in October. Mr Hewett has taken into account the views of the users of the hall and has arrived at two revised options. Both options meet the budget recommended by the Community First adviser, Sue Brazendale. One is a refurbishment of the existing hall making full use of the existing structure. The other more radical approach is to replace the existing building with a smaller modern and high environmental specification structure already nicknamed the Putley Pyramid. To discuss these options a further Public meeting is planned for Thursday, January 15, at 7.30pm in the hall. Users of the hall will be invited to choose between these two plans. It is hoped that residents of Putley, Aylton, Little Marcle and Pixley will attend to make their views known. Following this meeting plans will be drawn up and funding sought for the hall's redevelopment.
