About the Hall
Following the closure of Ickleton Church School in 1960, the school building was purchased and donated to the village, thus becoming the first Ickleton Village Hall. Much of the refurbishment of the old building was carried out on a voluntary basis by local people and as the one-time alma mater of so many, became a much loved institution. Size and layout constraints limited its use and consequently the funds needed to maintain it. The decision was taken by the village in 1992 to build a new hall and with help from Sports England, the Foundation for Sports and the Arts, South Cambridgeshire District Council and Ickleton Parish Council, the new purpose built hall was opened in November 1999.
