Facilities
Main Hall
The main hall (15.1m x 9.1m) has a fine pitched ceiling (max ht 3.9m; min ht 3.2m) with a traditional sprung maple wood floor ideal for dancing. The hall capacity is currently 100. The hall is an ideal venue for children's parties (many bouncy castles can be accommodated—see Advertisers ), wedding receptions, social functions and dances.
A range of tables are available: these consist of 12 (1.8m x 0.75m) collapsible tables as well as 12 half-size collapsible tables. There are 100 stacking soft chairs.
Stage
A traditional, fully-curtained stage together with large wings and dressing room is ideal for dramatics and concerts.There are fixed speakers mounted high to the left and right of the stage, connected to a system (in the cupboard nearest left of the stage), with an instruction photo which is in the cupboard.
Hall PA
There is a 4-way gang in the top left corner which needs to be switched on—ensure all power block switches are on (system shows green power light). The stage lighting is controlled via a switch box connected to a long lead. The sound system comes with two long lead microphones; plus an AUX socket and cable (with standard 3.5mm male jack plug) to which your music player can be connected through its earphone socket. Volume to both microphones and AUX is controlled by the lower volume knob, labelled 'VOL HALL' (note: you may need to adjust the volume level on your music player).
Kitchen
A serving hatch from the well-equipped kitchen makes the hall ideal for wedding receptions, luncheons, etc. The kitchen equipment includes a microwave, larder fridge, hot-water urn, four-ring gas hob, two ovens and two large warming drawers. There is matching crockery sufficient for up to 120 place settings includes dinner, breakfast and side plates, cups and saucers and cutlery.

Decoration
We understand that hirers will wish to decorate the hall for functions, which is acceptable to the management committee—we can also offer our own team to assist in dressing, for a nominal charge. Should you undertake your own decoration, we ask that no Sellotape® or Blutack® is stuck to the emulsioned walls as this will affect the paint and plaster. There are many hooks provided around the main hall for decoration purposes.
If you would like to hire us to decorate the hall, costs are:- drapes and up-lighters £60; tablecloth hire £20.

Review from Google Maps August 2019
"First time we've been to this park: it was absolutely brilliant: our granddaughter loved it here. There is something here for all children; from the slide, the swings, the roundabout, the climbing frame; then there are small puzzles for the children to do as well. Loved it."

'This project was started about 2005. I took photographs of various buildings in Hartlebury, enlarged them to A1 and then had a mirror image taken of each A1 enlargement.
In order to give the sky, grass and roads a 3D effect, I created material using shaving foam and blobs of acrylic paint. Each picture was built up using a lighting box, mirror image and Bondaweb in the normal appliqué quilting fashion. The shapes were ironed on to the background of calicos and top stitched into place by various matching stitches. To give a greater 3D effect and shadows, part of the materials were hand painted. The trees and bushes were created with confetti quilting which is when suitable material for vegetation is cut into tiny pieces, ironed onto the background, then free motion sewing is used to hold the leaves and branches in place.
When the nine pictures were completed, to limit the joining materials buckling, heavy duty interfacing was used to give a consistency between the pictures and the adjoining materials.
The whole project was finished in December 2017.'
