About Our Parish Hall

Whessoe Parish Hall is situated on the A167 approximately 200 yards north of the White Horse pub at the junction of Harrowgate Village/A167 and Burtree Lane. It’s a detached 1980s brick purpose-built building with a rear and side lawned garden, views over open farmland and car parking for approximately 15 cars. Thanks to National Lottery and Sport England funding it was fully refurbished in 2019 and offers a modern, attractive multi-purpose venue.
​The hall is used regularly for yoga and dance classes, an embroidery group, WI meetings, NHS Mindfulness classes and dog training as well as being available for private parties and social evenings.
