On the east side of Hall Terrace. The Carmarthenshire Community Halls website states that the hall has a seating capacity of 200, with a proscenium stage and dressing room. The hall was originally a two storey building, opened in 1925 by a local businessman as a commercial venture. The owner and family lived upstairs, where there was also a billiard hall. The ground floor consisted of a shop/café, the family kitchen and a large hall. In 1948 it was taken into public ownership. By 1965 the property was in a poor state of repair. Because of funding constraints, accommodation had to be sacrificed by removing the upper floor. The ground floor was completely refurbished.
