We are delighted to welcome you to come and explore our new history Archive in its new home at Lurgashall Village Hall.
The Archive will be anything but dusty old files that are never opened! We plan to share as much as we can with anyone who is interested – whatever their age and wherever they come from.
We are working hard to digitise many of our collections and will soon be giving regular updates and more information on the new Lurgashall Archive page on this website.
Every three years for the last 20 or so, Lurgashall Village Hall hosts a very special Arts & Crafts Exhibition which shows some of the incredible artistic and craft talent of local people in our parish.
It is hard to describe the amazing variety and quality of works that are shown, and this year will be no exception. Postponed from 2021 because of the coronavirus lockdown, applications for submitting works are now being accepted. Entry forms are available in the village shop or from 8artscrafts@gmail.com. Cut-off date for entries is 8 February.
The exhbition will be open for everyone to view on Sat 26th and Sun 27th February, 11am – 4pm, at Lurgashall Village Hall. Admission is free.
We are delighted to welcome the very talented singer, Karen Barnett, to entertain the village with her brilliant tribute act of Carpenters’ songs.
Karen’s silky smooth tones are often likened to such great singers as Karen Carpenter, so she is the perfect person to give life to some of the Carpenters’ amazing songs.
Doors open at 7.30pm for an 8pm start.
Tickets £7.50 from the village shop or call 01428 707596.

Our first FILM NIGHT since lockdown attracted a good sized audience. We have two more films to show this year, so do come along on the first Wednesday of each month – it’s good fun to watch on our Big Screen and Surround Sound in the company of friends and neighbours, with a Bar and Interval ice-creams, of course.
Lurgashall Link is a private Facebook group that operates like a notice board and is purely for residents of Lurgashall Parish.
It’s a space where our village community can interact and support one another and share up-to-date news, events, questions and neighbourly requests.
Let’s all become better connected.
If you are not on Facebook anf would like to get involved but don’t know how, please get in touch via email or phone and we’d be happy to help set up up.
