A Little bit of History
Filkins Village Hall, known formally as the Carter Institute after its founder and benefactor, Mrs Amelia Carter, is a thriving and popular venue for village and private functions, parties and shows.
It was originally built in 1912 as a temperance establishment, but the rules have since been relaxed a little ! Facilities include the main hall, with modern portable staging, a kitchen and bar area, green room, cloakrooms and a smaller meeting room upstairs.
There is limited car parking at the rear of the Hall.
The Institute is managed by a Committee made up of elected members and representatives of all the principal organisations in Filkins and Broughton Poggs which make regular use of the Hall.
The Hall is equipped with state-of-the-art cinema, video and audio facilities.
