About us

Lighthorne is a small village in a valley in Warwickshire, about 6 miles (9.7 km) south of Warwick. Leamington Spa, Moreton Morrell, Kineton and Wellesbourne are all nearby.

We are proud of our Parish Church dedicated to St Laurence. The nave and chancel date from an 1876 rebuilding and the tower dates from 1773-4. The windows incorporate 16th century glass of national importance. We are proud of our traditional pub, The Antelope, which is thought to date from the early 18th century.  But most of all we are proud of our Village Hall built in 1960 which is very much at the heart of our village.

It is where we come together as a village for celebrations, entertainment and a huge number of activities but it is also a hall we are keen to share with you  – you can join in our many activities and events or hire the hall for your own.

The amenity comprises:

  1. The main hall which has a capacity for 100 with a stage, male, female and disabled toilets, a well equipped kitchen, tables and chairs.
  2. The David Wright Room which is a new wing of the hall, built in 2019 and which can be used as a meeting room, for smaller activities or as a bar/entrance for larger events. The David Wright Room also hosts the outreach Post Office for the village on Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons.
  3. The North Annexe is currently under construction. This will be used for social, recreational, educational and community activities for the benefit of the local community including committee and community meetings, children’s groups, exercise classes, rehearsals, craft groups, changing facilities and other small community events. The new annexe will also provide much needed back stage and storage space for the above uses
  4. There is parking for approximately ten cars at the Village Hall and there is a children's play area with modern equipment adjacent to the hall.

The hall is well-used for a variety of activities including the outreach Post Office; regular hirings; parties; themed suppers and events; electoral voting; community meetings; wedding receptions; exercise and dance classes and dramatic productions.

Lighthorne Village Hall is a charitable institution run as a non-profit organisation by a voluntary management committee.
