Community Buildings
There are two community buildings in Atcham - the Memorial Hall (known as The Malthouse) and the Bowling Club.
The Memorial Hall was originally built as a malthouse for Lord Berwick in the mid 17th century and donated by Lord Berwick in the early 1920's, apparently in a poor state of repair to the parish to be converted into a memorial hall to commemorate the men of Atcham who fell in the Great War. It was officially opened on 31st December 1925.
In the Thirties and Forties, regular Friday & Saturday dances were held in the hall. During the Second World War, it was the place to go not only for the locals but also for the Americans stationed at the Atcham airfield and the nurses from Berrington hospital.
The hall has a sprung wooden floor, installed in the early 1960s.
