New Victory Hall The Village Hall for Neatishead, Irstead and Barton Turf, Norfolk One outcome of this appeal was the formation of NABS (Neatishead and Barton Society).

History of Victory Hall

In the latter part of the nineteenth century the Preston family of Beeston St. Lawrence built a reading and club room in Neatishead where members would meet to chat and read a selection of daily newspapers. In 1919 the Reading Room and Social Club was purchased from Sir Edward Preston by the local population as a memorial to those who gave their lives in the Great War and renamed 'the Victory Hall'. This became a popular venue for meetings, such as wedding receptions, parties, concerts, lectures and craft demonstrations and, in 1922, the Neatishead Victory Hall charity was established. During World War Two the Victory Hall was regularly used for whist drives, dances, Red Cross meetings and other social events, and the local Woman's Voluntary Service used the hall two evenings a week so soldiers posted nearby could have hot drinks and light snacks. The upkeep of the hall became increasingly expensive; in early 1970 an appeal was launched to raise money for alterations to the hall itself. In early 1981 the old kitchen was changed into a small meeting/changing room, and a toilet block and a kitchen were added. Over time the Victory Hall became increasingly unsuitable for general use so a fundraising campaign was started in the mid to late 1990’s to build a new hall. In 2007, at the third attempt, a £177,000 grant was secured from the Big Lottery Fund. The Victory Hall was sold in November 2008 for £127,000 and this money, along with more than £100,000 raised by the local community and over £70,000 in smaller grants, financed the construction of the New Victory Hall.

Midwinter Break(2026) Cert:12A 90 Minutes
This film is about an empty-nester couple who, having relocated to Glasgow from Northern Ireland following a traumatic episode during the Troubles, decide to take a trip to Amsterdam. Their marriage is seemingly affectionate and comfortable, but Gerry (Ciaran Hinds) has a not-so-secret drink problem and his wife Stella (Lesley Manville) is unhappy that he does not share her deep Catholic faith. She has a secret agenda for the visit which she has not divulged to him. Hinds and Manville give exceptionally thoughtful and intimate performances which will linger with you long after the film ends.

We look forward to welcoming you to the New Victory Hall where tea/coffee will be available for a small charge. Please visit www.victoryhall.info to book tickets. Or make a reservation by calling Christine on 01692 631347. Subject to availability tickets (£6) can be purchased on the door, subject to availability.

Village Screen - Mon 3rd August 7 for 7.30pm

Wuthering Heights (Cert:15-136 mins) is a 2026 gothic period drama film loosely based on the 1847 novel by Emily Bronte.

Reviewers have praised the film for its gorgeous cinematography, lavish 18th century production design and sweeping Yorkshire landscapes. However, many fans of the original book feel the film strays too far from the source material. It's true that the period costumes are somewhat flashy and the electric soundtrack featuring Charli xcx is unexpected, but the film is breathtaking enough in both its scenery and its "romance" to satisfy.

We look forward to welcoming you to the New Victory Hall where tea/coffee will be available for a small charge. Please visit www.victoryhall.info to book tickets.

Village Screen - Monday 1st June
Based on Maggie O'Farrell's novel HAMNET (2025/26, Cert 12A, 125 mins) is a devastating and beautifully crafted historical drama that explores the profound grief behind William Shakespeare's creation of Hamlet.
Most critics agree that it is a "tearjerker" of the highest order, anchored by a career-defining and Academy Award winning performance from Jessie Buckley.

Village Screen - Monday 4th May 7pm for 7.30pm
We are looking forward to showing H is for Hawk (Cert 12A 119 mins), adapted from Helen Macdonald’s 2014 memoir. Claire Foy gives a career best performance as Helen who is grieving the sudden loss of her father. Foy reportedly trained in falconry for the role and viewers will delight in the lush, evocative imagery of the British landscape and soaring wildlife shots of the goshawk in flight. We look forward to welcoming you to the NVH where tea/coffee will be available for a small charge. Please visit www.victoryhall.info to book tickets. Or make a reservation by calling Christine on 01692 631347. Subject to availability tickets (£6) can be purchased on the door, card or cash.
