Residents to be consulted on Abbey Hall refurbishment plans
Abingdon-on-Thames Town Council will launch a consultation with residents on future plans for the Abbey Hall. The hall requires extensive structural and health and safety improvements which will mean that the building must be closed to the public from 31 August 2025 for up to one year.
It is important that the work is carried out to ensure that the hall can be used to its maximum potential for years to come.
The Town Council will carry out public engagement and consultation in due course to find out what local people think about the future of the Abbey Hall. The consultation will be undertaken online and via mailings to residents to give everyone a chance to participate.
Abbey Hall is owned by Abingdon Town Council, although there are restrictions on its use under an agreement with the Vale of White Horse District Council. It currently houses the Abbey Cinema.
