PARKING
"Plentiful parking. Try to get one of the spaces at the side by the fire exit as this is where the stage is. It can get a bit packed when there is a function though."
ACCESS
"About 3m from the side fire exit door and you are at the stage. There is one big step."
FACILITIES
"Fairly large raised (1m) stage. - width available: 4-5m - height clearance: 3-4m"

STAFF

Dancefloor	No specific dancefloor area
Stage Area	High permanent stage

Blackout	No effective blackout
"This hall has a system where if you open one of the fire exit doors, all of the electricity is cut off. This is due to neighbours complaining about the sound when the doors were left open. Therefore, if anyone opens one of these doors (which is quite often as this is the main entrance for getting goods into the hall) then the power goes off. This only affects the sockets on the stage. n nI would suggest either using one of the sockets in the centre of the hall, these are not affected. "
