The Hall is in the High Street opposite The Cross near the
centre of the village. It is suitable for many different
events and is widely used by local groups and for private
functions.
The Hall has UltraFast Wifi.
A large playing field is situated behind the Hall with
changing facilities and showers available.
It has been commended as one of the most picturesque
cricket venues in Gloucestershire.
We are currently restoring the 1939-1945 Memorial Gates.
Limited parking is available on the Playing Field, subject
to rain / surface conditions.
We have recently improved parking by laying down all weather
matting.
The Hall will seat 80 people at tables or 110 more
informally. There is a small, well equipped kitchen,
renovated during lockdown, and now open for hire. We now
also have a serving hatch.
This being Aylburton, Licences can be arranged.
Normally a Union Flag is flown from the Memorial Hall, its position reflecting HM government advice depending on events.
The trustees will consider requests to fly other flags for events if so requested, noting the Memorial Hall tries to be strictly apolitical.
The Parish Council and Memorial Hall organise a poppy wreath laying ceremony on the 11 November each year. (Noting the RBL Red Poppy is intended as a symbol of both Remembrance and hope for a peaceful future.)

The Hall has a limited number of allotments for hire. They are generally safe from rabbits. Please contact the Honorary Secretary for details.
The Playing Field borders the Aylburton Tree Conservation Area.
All tree management is conducted by suitable tree surgeons, outside of nesting (unless urgent after storm damage).
There is an aspiration to develop a limited Community Orchard, or increase biodiversity/heritage trees, however we are limited in what we can achieve by the number of volunteers.
The Playing Field sometimes needs rabbits to be controlled.
This is conducted by suitable control operatives.
