Milton Village Hall Committee are delighted to share that planning approval has been granted for a major refurbishment and extension of our Village Hall. These much-needed improvements will ensure the hall remains a welcoming, accessible and well-equipped space for years to come.
The approved plans include:
- Improved disabled access, making the hall more inclusive
- New Storage Extensions, to better support community groups and activities
- Replacement windows, improving energy efficiency
- Internal reconfiguration, to maximise usable space for events, classes and gatherings
These developments follow a consultation period, which included an open day to view plans, as well as invaluable support we have received from Repton Parish Council and Kerry Haines, local councillor. We would also like to thank Sue Goodwin for taking the committee lead on the planning process and Matthew Montague Architects for their work in preparing and submitting the drawings and planning application.
We’re grateful to everyone who contributed their time and feedback to help shape the vision for the Village Hall’s future.
Alongside the long-term plans, essential repairs will be carried out ahead of winter to help protect the fabric of the building while work progresses.
To help fund these exciting developments we are launching a fund-raising campaign. Details of events, initiatives and ways to contribute will be shared soon.
