Glasson Dock, Lancashire

Captain Brian Bibby opened Glasson Memorial Hall during Easter 1922 in memory of the fallen of the village from the First War. The Architect was C.P. Pearson of Lancaster. The building work was done by Messrs. Thompson & Morris at a cost of £1,750 16s 8d.

The main Hall was 49ft in length and 23ft wide with committee and cloak rooms at the front and a staircase leading up to a billiard room. The building was constructed of rubble walling and roughcast, with a red tiled roof.

The Hall was used by the Girls Friendly Society in the 1930's. Other uses were Amateur Dramatics, Whist Drives & dances - during the war it was known for American troops to attended the dances while their boats were stationed in the dock. In 1939 the local children put on a performance of Robin Hood. In 1939 electric lighting was installed in the Hall.
(Taken from the Hall's Facebook page)

In 1998, as a result of lottery funding, it was renamed the Village Hall, and also now houses the village post office.

The inscription on the last photo reads
"PRESENTED TO
Mary Simpson
ON THE OCCASION OF THE
FOUNDATION STONE LAYING
OF THE
GLASSON WAR MEMORIAL HALL
28 SEPT 1921 "

As I lived in my native county, Staffordshire, before moving to Lancashire, I think I'm entitled to call it my local county still. This is at Creswell, just on the edge of Stafford.
