Chalfont St Giles Memorial Hall
School Lane, Chalfont St Giles HP8 4JJ
The Memorial Hall, completed in 1923, was built to commemorate servicemen from the village killed in the Great War and it continues to be used for a wide variety of village activities. The new Millennium Entrance, opened in July 1999, greatly improved the Hall by adding modern toilet facilities, as well as providing a very welcoming entrance foyer. The Hall has its own car park and it is an ideal venue for meetings and village activities.
Facilities
The Hall can hold up to 200 people; seating is provided for up to 150.
The main hall measures 13 metres by 9 metres approximately. All events
must finish by 11 pm.
There is a large kitchen with facilities for the provision of meals. The
Hall may be hired for commercial events at a rate of £20.00 per hour and
for private events at a rate of £15.00 per hour. Note: These are the
rates for 2012.

Private functions - There is limited availability for bookings for private functions for local residents (living in the HP8 postcode area). No parties for 14 to 21 year olds.
