NEWS
OPENING UP
In view of the delay in removing Covid restrictions, the Village Hall Committee has regrettably decided to keep the Hall closed until 19th July. We have a number of activities planned for later in the summer so let's hope we can all get back to meeting up soon thereafter. Thank you for your patience.
LIVE@EASTWELL
We plan to start up again in October when we will hopefully have had a bit of time getting used to meeting indoors. This is dependent on there being no Covid restrictions in place. In the event of cancellation all monies will be refunded.
Three shows have been booked which we hope will appeal to a wide range of tastes. Details on the Concerts page.
HISTORY GROUP
A modest autumn programme has been arranged to get things moving, all to be held at Eastwell Village Hall. Details on the History Group page.

Eastwell History
Eastwell and the surrounding area has a rich and fascinating history. Eastwell History Group runs a programme of talks and presentations about the people who lived there and the events that shaped its story. 60 years ago Eastwell was surrounded by ironstone quarries. One of the locomotives used for hauling the ore, Lord Granby, has been returned to the village and is being restored by the Group.
