We've been busy during "lock down" and one of our proudest acheivements has been the resoration of the old Memorial Hall gate! Originally lost and then rediscovered at the back of the old boiler house, this beautifully carved oak gate used to be the main entrance to the original Memorial Institute Hall then only accessible off Station Road and well before Pannal Bank was built! Sponsored by Committee Memebers Mike Briggs and Mel Raine (pictured) the project has been done during the winter months with help from our local joiner who has restored this artifact to its former glory. The original enscriptions, commemorating both World Wars are carved into the gate and can once again be clearly read. Mel has now rehung the gate in our Pannal Bank boundary fence where it can be best viewed by the passing public.
