Findon Hall is a well-used village hall, providing a wide range of exercise classes and activities for all age groups in the village of Culbokie on the Black Isle. However the hall’s 55 year old roof was porous and in need of replacement and further work was needed to help make the hall more efficient and lower annual maintenance costs. The project would allow the village activities to continue and expand as the life of the hall would be secured for future generations.

The project’s delivery was delayed due to social distancing restrictions and difficulty in obtaining materials due to the pandemic, however once work commenced in late June and with the hall being closed to the public, work progressed swiftly.

The project completed in September 2020 and the residents of Culbokie are delighted with the results. The village hall is warmer and more sustainable and will have environmental benefits in terms of fuel savings and lower maintenance.
