A space for creating and making:- A wood work, metal work and hobby workshop area with other flexible spaces where you can be creative and learn new skills or apply those you already have. Somewhere to relax and meet people:- The first community building built in the village since the 1970's - a modern, comfortable and secure environment in which to engage with others or just relax in like-minded company. To provide a truly Community Space:- The Community Shed is a genuine non-profit making, inclusive community facility run by and open to all members of the community over eighteen.
