As this part of Wedmore Vale was being developed, provision for youth activities was given a home in the Jubilee Hall. Not much is known about the early history of the property, but it is believed to have been constructed around 1920 and was presented to the City in 1939 by the Clifton High School for Girls. Later taken on by the local council, it was about to be disposed of but a local group were accepted to use it as a boxing gym. 'Skemer's Gym' has a lease which started in 2019 and they have been successful in extending it recently.
