About St Nicholas Church Centre Bedhampton

Particularly well-sited for visitors, this building is a short stroll from Bedhampton station, and close to the junction of the A3M and A27. There is a frequent bus service from Havant and Portsmouth.

The building is dual purpose - the Hall has a stage at one end and an altar and sanctuary at the other, so it's as much 'Church' as 'Church Hall'.

The Hall has a capacity of 160 - just the right size for everyone to see and hear!

Accessibility

Although the Hall has level access for wheelchairs, there are currently no wheelchair-accessible toilets.

There is plenty of on-street parking as well as a small car-park. Audiences are asked to park so that residents' driveways are clear. Please don't park in the car-park of The Dragon.

And when others help us to help others ...

The Concerts we've held in aid of registered charities at St Nicholas Church Centre all enjoyed a concessionary Hall Hire rate - we are very grateful to the PCC of St Thomas & St Nicholas Church Bedhampton for this financial support towards our fund-raising efforts
