Our large Gathering Room can accommodate up to 140 people for your seminar, wedding reception, birthday party, or bridal shower.
For smaller events like meetings, workshops, or smaller gatherings, we have several different spaces that are suited to that size.
Built in 1825, our historic Meetinghouse has been a landmark in South Britain for generations. Featuring a center aisle, a beautiful stained glass window, and amazing acoustics, the Meetinghouse is picture-perfect for your wedding.
The main level is accessible via a ramp, and the sanctuary seats up to 200 people. Our Meetinghouse is equipped with state-of-the-art audio technology, making it an ideal venue for weddings, funerals, concerts, and worship services.
Our Gathering Room is perfect for receptions, banquets, meetings, and smaller gatherings.
