This unique building in the heart of Bucklebury village, plus the land it sits on, was conveyed to the local community in the will of Dame Nina Katherine Webley Parry Pryse, a Bucklebury resident who died in 1917.  A committee of volunteer trustees was set up to look after the Victory Room, ensuring the hall was maintained for everyone’s benefit.

 

Over the years the hall has been used for all sorts of gatherings, and in the early days, some evenings were reserved for men or women only! Today it’s used by local scouts and cubs, Newbury College, as a polling place during elections, for various committee and public meetings, family parties, the local football teams, church functions, entertaining events organised by the trustees, and more.

 

The committee is dedicated to keeping this great village landmark available for many years to come.

 

You can hire the Victory Room!  It’s the perfect venue for up to 80 people, and has everything you’ll need - tables, chairs, crockery, cutlery and table cloths – plus a stage!  All of the furniture is also available for local hire.  For information on the availability of the hall and hiring charges, please contact Lindy Clarke on 0118 971 2768 or by email:  lindy.clarke@live.co.uk
