Surrounding Nottinghamshire villages are offering a space for Gotham residents after their village hall was ravaged by a fire. Gotham Memorial Hall, also home to the Orchard Surgery GP practice and a library, was devastated by the blaze on Thursday, February 16.
Members of the community said the damage to the hall, which is used for weddings, children's parties and an array of clubs and classes, was a "massive hit" for the village. However, booking clerk Gill Litchfield said neighbouring villages had offered their own as a space for Gotham residents.
She said people from Clifton, Plumtree and Barton in Fabis had all been in contact with her. "We've had offers from surrounding village halls, if anyone wants to use their facilities they're quite welcome to get in touch with them," she said.
