In July 1910 the Montrave Hall (situated on Leven Road) was opened. The Evening Telegraph of 25 July reported under the headline "New Hall at Lundin Links" that Sir John Gilmour had provided a 'spacious hall with museum annex' made of corrugated iron and capable of seating 400. The opening came nine years after comments had been made, at the annual concert given by summer visitors, that the village was still capable of considerable expansion and that efforts should be made to obtain a large hall.
The hall was opened with a concert - the first of many. Of course, over the subsequent century the building has hosted a vast array of events - some of which will be the subject of tomorrow's post. In 1968, after much fund-raising activity, the Montrave Hall was re-opened having been completely redecorated and modernised internally. In 1975, the exterior was revamped and made more permanent. It continues to play an important role in local life. If you have memories of events held here - please comment.
