Rampton Village Hall was built in 1842 by Rev Charles Westeneys Eyre. The building closed as a school in 1914 upon the opening of Rampton Primary School. The former village school was renamed 'The Hostel' and used by Lady Ellis as both a Sundary School and function room for village activities. Part of the former Manor Estate it was sold in 1927 to become the church hall. Scouts, Guides and Gym Classes started in the 1930's. The first renovation of the hall was in 1924 following a local fundraising event. In 1969 the Parish Council raised a precept of 4d per household that year for its next renovation.

Recent History: it was purchased by the Parish Council in 1995 and has since undergone continuous repairs and improvements
