Everything’s cooking at Yelverton hall

We were delighted to have a splendid, new kitchen installed at Yelverton War Memorial Hall over the Easter holidays, with up-to-the-minute appliances. The kitchen had to be completed while Penmoor Nursery was on holiday and with our trusty band of local tradesmen, Paddy Swinburne, Gary McCauley and Alan Colley it was finished in good time with little disruption to regular classes and meetings. We even managed to get Scott McLuskie to decorate before the start of term.

This is the latest in a programme of improvements over the past few years which has included a rainwater recycling system (with help from The Big Lottery Fund and Dartmoor National Park) as well as new windows and doors throughout the hall. We have also extended our parking area and purchased a new mower for the Memorial Field to keep it in good condition for football in winter and boot sales and fairs in summer. The hall hosts a number of weekly classes and at weekends there are parties, dances, comedy nights and, increasingly, wedding receptions.
