The hall was originally erected in 1846 as a school and it catered for 80 scholars.  It was built with money donated by Miss Elizabeth Greenwell of Broomshields, and was owned by the Greenwell Trust.  In the 1980s the building was in need of renovation and the Trust decided they no longer wanted to maintain it.  In 1981 it was sold to the P.C.C. who are trustees of the hall.

In 2004 and 2005 the Churchwardens, Mrs. Grace Hall and Mrs Chrissie Clark, and various fund raising events held in the hall, managed to raise a considerable amount of money which enabled the hall be brought up to a very high standard.  The roof was renewed: the floor and foundations replaced: windows replaced in hard wood in the original style and double glazed: both ladies and gents toilets were brought up to date: more kitchen units put in place along with a cooker and fridge.
