Parking

Stanford Dingley Village Hall is located on a very small country lane on which there is  large agricultural traffic passing by frequently. This gives very limited parking on the lane; realistically 2 cars only.

Parking options:

Village events: Most people should walk. Less mobile visitors can be dropped off but there are a maximum of two parking spaces on the lane outside the hall.

Parking at The Old Boot Inn (30 meters away) : By prior arrangement with the Landlord, Andre Claassen (0118 974 5191). Charges may be applicable.

Larger scale: off road parking for bigger events in paddocks/fields close to the hall subject to weather and arrangement at the time of booking the hall.

Pubs nearby

The village has two pubs/restaurants:

The Bull Inn (very good dining – 200 metres) and The Old Boot (about 50 metres from the Hall and a proper pub). Both pubs in the village will support events in the hall either with onsite catering or offering lunch at their pubs.
