Work on Eardisland Village Hall

Project background The village hall is owned by Eardisland Parish Council and managed by the Eardisland Village Hall Management Committee, a charity. Originally the building was the village school which was closed many years ago, at which point the hall was bought by the Parish Council on behalf of the community. The project There are a number of elements to the renovation and extension project and once the tenders are available, the Parish Council will decide if all or part of the project will go ahead. The elements are as follows: 1. Demolition and rebuilding of the kitchen. 2. Replacement of the windows with double glazed units. 3. Electrical re-wire. 4. Insulation of walls and ceilings of the main hall, meeting room and lobbies. 5. Removal and reinstatement of the hall floor. 6. Repair of external walls in line with recommendations of the structural survey. Accompanying documents Detailed specification and drawings. Structural survey report. Project costs The indicative budget is in the region of £70,000 to include all construction and renovation costs and contingency. The Parish Council will need to take out a loan to meet most of this figure and has limited potential to extend this figure, so the construction approach will need to be refined and optimised to meet the project objectives, though the Council will be open to the possibility of suggestions for items of self/community finish such as painting.
