Until the end of July 2015, the village hall occupied the Eastern part of the Folly (to the right of the picture above) and was used by a number of organisations from within and well beyond the village boundaries. The Western half of the Folly (to the left of the picture), served as the Village Primary School until 1987 and was sold off after the school closed. Farringdon Children now attend Chawton or Selborne school. Following the School Closure, the West end of the Folly served as commercial premises and a Nursery School, although it had been
unoccupied for some time before the building was eventually sold for development. (The Picture on the left was taken in 2010) Despite its listed status, The Folly faced an uncertain future as a Village Hall
due to the heavy financial
cost of maintaining the structure. |

*Last, but by no means least, Farringdon has two welcoming village pubs,
one at each end of the village.
