Welcome to The Barbour Institute

The Barbour Institute has been
Tattenhall's Village Hall since 1898 and has served the village throughout the
intervening years in many ways.

At the heart of the village, it is
rich in history, having hosted sporting activities including snooker in our
Billiard room and during the Great War of 1914-1918 it was requisitioned as an
Army Hospital.

Its uses have expanded and grown over
the last 120+ years and it has always been a welcome venue for Tattenhall
Amateur Dramatics Society and their many superb productions... bringing a night
of theatre to our village.

Today it is home to many activities
and groups that cater from tiny tots through to every age group and interest.

A hub for the village it hosts
christenings, parties, weddings, funerals and music concerts and is the focus
of village life during Remembrance in November and Christmas.

All rooms are well appointed, and we
have state of the art technical equipment available.

The Trustees are devoted to constant
upgrading and improvements, for example the upgrades toilets and new LED
lighting, with fundraising efforts including jumble sales and Christmas Craft
Fairs.

We are a licenced wedding venue, and
many Brides and Grooms have discovered how beautifully the building converts to
a rural wedding venue.

Come along for a visit – we host a Drop-in coffee morning every
Tuesday at 10am – 12 midday – all welcome!
