In 1917, the Viscount Hambledon acquired the Parish Room, a stone and corrugated iron construction built in 1898, which he then entrusted to a local committee for parochial use. At that time it was known as St Winifred's Room and an entrance to it was made from the road, the site of the present Parish Hall.
