History
The Hall was built in 1914 by Earl Cadogan the then owner of the Culford Estate for the use of its residents. The Estate was sold in 1934 and in 1936 the new owners, Lambert Brothers, conveyed the Village Hall and surrounding land to local trustees for the benefit of the inhabitants of Culford, Ingham, West Stow, Culford Heath and Wordwell.
