Please note:

  1. Whilst the hall has a Premises License that covers these activities the hirer is responsible for ensuring they have the appropriate copyright licenses for the materials that they use.
  2. As we are located in a quiet and peaceful village with close neighbours we specify a maximum noise level in our terms and conditions. For more information please see this FAQ article:
  3. Usage of some our Blu-ray player or microphones requires access to our media cupboard which must be arranged in advance.

Is there a limit on the volume of music?

As we are located in a quiet and peaceful village with close neighbours we specify a maximum noise level in our terms and conditions.

  1. We ask that windows and external doors are closed when loud music is being played inside the hall.
  2. We prohibit the playing of music outside of the hall without our express permission.

We have a number of system to help monitor and control noise levels:

  1. A sound decibel meter to enable hirers to understand the noise level in real time
  2. A noise monitoring service provided by Minut that records the noise level in the hall. Please note that we do not record conversations. Please use this link for the Minut privacy policy
  3. A noise limiting system. The noise limiter has two parts”:
    1. A ‘traffic light’ display in the main hall. The light flash orange as the noise level nears the limit and red when the limit is exceeded
    2. A power cutout to the main hall when the noise limit is exceeded for more than 10 seconds.

How to use the sound system?

The easiest way to use our sound system is via a Bluetooth connection.

  • You need to be in the far right corner of the main hall to connect

 

  • Press the button indicated to start Bluetooth:
