Linton Village Hall

Coles Ln, Linton, Cambridge CB21 4JS.  The hall is located on Coles Lane, on a one-way street. There is not enough space for everyone to park right outside, so when you see the hall on your left, please either park on Coles Lane just beyond the hall, or turn right, straight opposite (signposted to Linton Health Centre) and there is a free carpark about 30 metres from the hall.
