Monxton & Amport Parish Councillors met with our Architect (Luke Rose) and the MD of Huttons (Gil Hutton) a local builder based in Andover.  

At the meeting we reviewed the final proposal from Huttons and agreed to go ahead with a turnkey contract to demolish the current hall down to the current foundations and build a new Oak framed building as per the design provided by Luke Rose. Luke Rose will also be project managing the build.

As most people may be aware, we were able to fund this project having won a £345,000 grant for the Community Infrastructure Levy fund and £25,000 from the Community Asset Fund, plus funds raised over the last five years from village events.

The work on the demolition will start in January and the building works are expected to take approximately 30 weeks taking us to September/October 2023 for completion.

We will need to store the current tables/chairs and some kitchen equipment so if anyone has some spare storage space, please contact either Mike Cleugh 01264 710276 or Chris Harris 01264 772240.

Until the demolition starts, the village hall will be open as usual for meetings and for hire.
