This room is suitable for large events such as dances, concerts or large social occassions. It is approximately 7.15 x 13.9 metres. The maximum capacity varies with layout of the room. In concert format with rows of chairs the working capacity is 120; for Ceilidhs and the Community Cinema the working capacity is about 70. These numbers fall well within the limit of 200 set by the Fire Services.
WiFi is available. The temperature control and instructions for central heating are near the double doors that lead to the vestibule.
There are 26 fold-up tables - 68.5cm x 91cm (14), 68.5cm x 182cm (6), 76cm x 182cm (6). There are 40 blue chairs in the Hall. A further 48 red chairs are available in the store room (between the gents and ladies toilets). Less convenient for access are a further 40 chairs in the basement. After being used, all chairs must be returned to their normal location.
At one end of the hall is a raised stage approximately 6.2 x 3.4 metres. Adjacent to the stage is access to the basement. Other than the Drama Group and maintenance, access is not permitted to this area.
At the rear of the hall are two cabinets providing control of various audio-visual services. A demonstration of this equipment can be arranged if needed:
- Projection System: There is a ceiling mounted projector for use with an in-house DVD/CD player. It can also display images/video from your own Personal Computer - Macintosh, Windows or Unix. HDMI and VGA connectors are available.
- Sound System: The audio system is based around a 'Sound Mixer' and 4 wall mounted speakers. This can take audio input from the in-house DVD/CD player, in-house radio microphones (1 handheld and 1 headset) or any device (Computer, phone, ...) with Bluetooth, headphone output or line out sockets.
- Loop Induction: The system includes a Loop Induction element which will mean a vastly improved experience for the hearing impaired.
- Wall Lighting: In addition to the normal ceiling lighting, other options are available to provide more subdued and/or simple stage lighting.
