Driftwood Hall

Nine photographs, one hall

A short introduction, then the whole album — the tables, the felt, the counter, and the timber building that used to be a chandlery.

Before the album

Why we keep a record of the hall

We've photographed the hall a few times over the years, mostly so regulars who've moved away can still see the old room.

Nothing here is staged for the camera — these are the same six tables, the same counter, the same building you'll find on any given night.

If you'd rather see it in person than in a photograph, the calendar behind the counter tells you when we're next open.

Updated occasionally

as the hall changes, so does the album
