Village Hall
Rochester Village Hall was founded in September 1931 after the land it occupies was bequeathed to the village by the local landowner David Freeman-Mitford, 2nd Baron Redesdale, among whose children were the writers Nancy and Jessica Mitford. The residents of Rochester formed a committee of Trustees and a 99-year lease was agreed. In 1978 the Trustees successfully applied for the status of the hall to be changed to a charitable trust, which it remains to this day. In addition to being a Community Hall it serves as the local Post Office on one morning a week.
