The Village Hall was substantially rebuilt in 1998, with many grants including: 21st Century Halls for England; Millennium (one of only 2 in Lancashire); Lancashire Environmental Fund; and European funding and gifts (£230K)
It is very well used by many organisations and groups and is run by a Trustee Management Committee. There is a '200 Club' for chances to win £25, £15, and £10 monthly. It was also awarded Millennium funding to set up Computing facilities for the village.
