about our hall

There has been a village hall in Selmeston since 1935. The original idea of a Village Hall was to encourage the social and intellectual life of both Alciston and Selmeston villages. In 1933 fundraising began with local donations and the residents of both parishes levied three pence a week as a contribution to this fund.


In 1999 the hall was extended and additional overflow parking created in 2020. 

BRINGING THE COMMUNITY TOGETHER SINCE 1935 TO EXCHANGE IDEAS, BUILD CONNECTIONS AND HAVE FUN

Today the hall offers all the modern conveniences you'd expect including wifi, contactless payments, surround sound,  multiple lighting options and even a hearing loop and defibrilator. 


It is the perfect space to hire for a celebration, regular club nights and workshops and meetings seating up to 100 people. 


We also have a calendar of community events throughout the year from quizzes to Annual flower shows and Christmas parties for the surrounding villages.


The hall remains a registered charity number 305307 and is entirely run by volunteers from the parish.
