The Jubilee Hall began in 1908 as a Reading and Recreation room for the men of the Burton Parish. The room was provided by Sir Owen & Lady Scourfield of Williamston.
The Parish bought the hall in 1923 for £100, and in 1963 it was made into a charitable trust, with three trustees, to ensure permanence in the community. In 1984 Burton Community Council were made the Custodian Trustees of the charity, and a revised constitution was agreed, and implemented.
The Hall
John Wesley preached twice in the parish, August 1771, and July 1777, and a village school was founded in 1844.
