The Village Hall is second only to the church as a Medmenham Community Asset. It started to take shape at a Danesfield Garden Fete (1927). However, the idea did not become a reality until 1935 when the Lord Devonport (Hudson Kearley) trustees donated an area of land for a village hall to be managed on a community basis. The vicar appointed two trustees Sir Alfred Davis K.B.E. and Mr Albert Hall of Lloyds Bank, Marlow to manage the Village Hall.
Mr. A. G. R. Mackenzie was appointed architect to design the Village Hall at least as long as the Day School classroom but somewhat wider, capable of extension and having a vestibule joining the new Village Hall building with the Old School room (a listed building). At this time there was no sanitation because the old school toilets had fallen down and were just a heap of rubble and weeds.
The Trustees found their funds would not extend to sanitation and cloakrooms so the Vicar undertook to include the annexe with requisite sanitation and drainage as part of the Old School premises on the understanding that the Village Hall paid the maintenance. A situation which continues today with the Church still owning the Old School room and the Medmenham Parish Council trustees of the Village Hall. During the earlier part of WW2 the Village Hall provided a venue for dances etc for the RAF personnel at Danesfield House.
Since 2013 when the new Management Council took over, the hall has undergone a major renovation and now offers a spacious, cosy, pleasant, welcoming environment for a wide variety of activities.
