Hiring the Hall

Great venue: We have a large hall, with several exits onto a large grassed area for use in the summer. The hall has plenty of natural light and benefits from  underfloor heating making it warm as soon as you walk in!  There is also a folding/sliding wall which allows the space to be used in creative and helpful ways. 

Location: 1st Place (1st Winchester Scout Group Scout Hut) is nestled between houses on Fleming Road within Weeke, Winchester. It can only be accessed on foot and has no dedicated parking spaces

Cycling: Cycling is to be encouraged as much as possible. Bikes can be stored on site around the back of the building out of sight.
Car Sharing: Please encourage and coordinate car sharing as this will help ease problems with parking.
Parking: Parking is very limited due to the residential nature of the area.

Fleming Road. Parking on Fleming Road for drop-off and pick-up is possible during day-time hours as neighbour use is slight. Communal parking is found near the “green”, but priority needs to be given to residents.
