Ewerby Reading Room

 

Ewerby Reading Room, a community facility available for hire by the residents of Ewerby, Ewerby Thorpe, Evedon and the surrounding communities, was visited last week by local MP Stephen Phillips to celebrate a recent refurbishment with money from the National Lottery. An impressive new bar and seating area together with new lavatories now adjoin the Reading Room which was originally donated to the village as a facility for farm workers to adjourn to, to read the news of the day. Stephen was able to chat to local residents who had worked so hard on the project and to see for himself the facilities which have been created. Commenting after his visit, Stephen said, "I want to congratulate all those who have been involved in securing funding to refurbish the Reading Room in Ewerby so that it continues to serve as a community asset for the village and the surrounding villages in the 21st Century. This is exactly the sort of project which the Government's localism agenda is concerned with protecting. As with so many other areas, it is clear that everyone here in Lincolnshire is well ahead of the game!"
