Dated 1904 [ Buildings of England: Cambridgeshire (2014 edn)]. The hall was given with 20 acres of land to the local authority in 1930 by Chivers, the local jam makers, in memory of the late John Chivers, who had acquired it in 1926 "intending it to be used for educational purposes for [the firm's] employees" [David Rooney, Henry Morris (2013), p.41]. It was planned that the hall would form part of the proposed village college - there was even talk of maintaining its "old world effect" . In the event it was not used by the college and has since been demolished; the lodge now stands next to an entrance to the college grounds. Not listed.
