ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Hereford & Worcester Special

Available for over a year

It was a place where many couples met - and people came from as far as Swansea for a night out at Park Hall in Wormelow. It started life as a village hall built by a farmer and could have been turned into a chicken house had it not taken off as a venue. But - it did take off and saw the likes of Status Quo grace its stage over the years. Drink driving laws eventually put a dampner on attendance levels but Park Hall did find a new lease of life in the 1980's when its upstairs became a nightclub. Sadly, the building was eventually abandoned and was gutted by a fire in 2004.
