Bonnie's Bar
We run our own bar available for use at any event if required.
Bonnie's Bar - so called as the land the Community Centre is built on used to belong to Bonnie Down, a local Hatherleigh farming character who used to farm sheep. It is still very much a family affair today as his daughter Jill looks after the Centre's accounts and her husband Kevin is the Caretaker. It is a fitting tribute to Bonnie and his family to have the bar named after him. Cheers Bonnie!
