[Embassy Ballroom Old Town Hall Bulwell]

Thank you, Glad people like the parquet floor, it took a lot to restore as it was hiding under carpet tiles but it was definitely worth it as its such a beautiful floor , The dance school love being at The Old Library its such a lovely building with a lovely atmosphere :-)

Hi Yes I am Amanda Hart who runs the dance school and will be soon moving in to the old bulwell Library , we do intend to keep this a building of beauty,

At the moment we are fund raising to help with the renovation costs, and thank you for your comments its nice to know people are happy we're moving in.

Theres some really good photos of the old bulwell library on the website picture the past

Even though the old town hall is called the old town hall but originally it was called the public hall but it was never a public owned building it has always been privately owned, During the years its has many uses , during the 2nd world war it housed many soldiers , during our renovation work we found discharge papers, a army hat, part of a army belt, and a barrel that they used for cleaning their guns with but we think they stored their ciggeretes in.

I dont own the building just lease it, but we did do ALL the renovation work to the top floor ourselves, it had been empty for 5 yrs before we moved in so was pretty much a bomb site, took us 6 months to renovate as there was such alot to do, the last business to be in there before us was a sewing machine factory.

The photos above were taken by myself , in 2009 Myself & my partner renovated a very run down embassy ballroom in to The new home for Take 5 Theatre school of dancing , the photos above was after renovation , During renovation we found many items of memorabilia such as old cigerette packets, letters, an old army hat , it was most enjoyable bringing the old town hall back to life.

would love to see some photos of when it was a ballroom but so far no one seems to have found any, but i've spoken to many people who have had happy memories dancing there.
