The Memorial Hall, Long Lawford

The Memorial Hall came into being in 1959, it's former use was that of a cattle yard and barns.
The old barns and cattle yard were purchased by a committee of Long Lawford residents who had raised funds during the second world war to help support members of the armed forces, at the end of hostilities, funds were still available, so the committee decided to carry on with their fundraising and used the raised monies for the benefit of the villagers of Long Lawford. The barns were converted into the hall with the help of voluntary support from the local population.
The hall was then named "The Memorial Hall," in dedication to the fallen servicemen of Long Lawford during the 1939-1945 conflict.
Inside the hall is a plaque depicting the names of the fallen
