About

Litton and Thorners Community Hall (LATCH) was built in 2009. It features a sprung wooden floor with non-slip surface, under-floor ground-source heating, and a fully controllable lighting system. Four French doors lead to patio and grassed areas with panoramic views. The hall is equipped with a loop system for hearing aids, a full sound system with projector and DVD facilities, and free wireless network (Wi-Fi). Wheelchair access is available to the hall and meeting room, with a purpose-built toilet for wheelchair users. The building also has a solar array system. The main hall measures 15m x 9.5m and can accommodate up to 154 people conference-style, 100 for seminars or banquets, and 80 for parties. The meeting room/stage measures 8.5m x 3.75m, has under-floor heating, a separate entrance with wheelchair access, projection facilities, and can be separated from the main hall by an acoustic door. It has an independent projector and sound system and a portable screen, with a capacity of 30. The kitchen is fitted out to commercial standards for food and drink preparation, serving, and dish-washing. An outside patio and grassed area with south-facing views across the Bride Valley is included with hall hire. Parking is available with 25 spaces, including 2 disabled bays. The hall holds licences for music, dancing, film shows, and sale of alcohol, and has full public liability insurance.
