Wacton lies 2 miles west of Long Stratton in South Norfolk. The hall is in the middle of the village on Hall Lane. We opened fully in 2013 after many years of fundraising and a six year building programme. We used volunteers wherever possible. Our facilities are available for community events, public and private hire. Find out what we have to offer, the availability and prices by using the links above.

Wacton Village Hall in South Norfolk– History
The old hall was built during the 1950s but the passage of time and
lack of planned maintenance meant that by the early 1990s extensive
refurbishment or closure were the only choices. As the facilities were
primitive by current standards and the dilapidations so advanced, there
was clearly little hope that it could be salvaged. Thoughts instead
turned to replacement. A design was produced which gained planning approval
in 2004 and within 3 years sufficient funding had been raised to start
work on phase one, the service block. The main hall followed and the
completed building was opened in 2013. After 3 years of operation the
hall is earning its keep and a maintenance fund is in place to ensure
it doesn't suffer the neglect of its predecessor.
