A FENCE will be erected around Studley Village Hall to offer extra security.
Studley Parish Council has agreed to install the 6ft 6ins fence around the perimeter of the High Street hall following increasing vandalism.
Studley Councillor Hazel Wright said: "We have had to go down the same route at Studley First School by erecting a fence around the hall after it was repeatedly targeted by vandals.
"It is something we have had to search our hearts about because we don't want to make the building look unattractive, but then we have to think of it's safety and that of it's users.
"However, we decided that prevention is better than cure," she added.
