Looking for an intimate venue?

Historic Place House Hall is now licensed for wedding ceremonies

Couples seeking an historic venue for their wedding ceremony now have a new local option to consider – the Grade 1 listed Place House Hall in the heart of Ware, which has just become licensed for civil wedding ceremonies. Place House Hall, which is tucked away in Bluecoat Yard just off Ware’s East Street, can accommodate up to 50 guests in its medieval hall, making it ideal for a small and intimate ceremony. It also has a secluded period garden with a pergola and medieval-style planting, which can act as a picturesque backdrop for photography.

The hall is hired out to you exclusively for the day, from 9am to 10pm (9pm on a Sunday) at a cost of £800 and small receptions after the ceremony can also be accommodated on-site.

The building dates back to the late 13th century and has played a variety of roles in Ware’s history, having been the Manor House of Ware in royal ownership; Christ’s Hospital School and a school for young ladies before being used as a private residence during the 20th century.

In the 1970s it was bequeathed to Hertfordshire Building Preservation Trust to be restored and is now managed by the trust as an amenity hall for local people. Over the years, many people who have used the hall have asked about getting married in it, hence the trust applying for the newly granted licence.

These are all signs that you may need ear wax removing. Ear wax is formed naturally to help protect the ear and usually leaves the ear of its own accord. But sometimes it builds up and requires professional removal.
