According to a post on the Town Hall's website: "The Council (KCC) intends that this unique iconic and historical building is made available to the community of Newbridge.

"Bookings are invited from across all local community groups in Newbridge Town and its environs," KCC added.
Social Democrats councillor Chris Pender welcomed the news, saying: "Many will know this is something I have been pushing for over the last year and it will be a welcome sight to see the doors open again with local groups and organisations using the space.
"Were still a long way to go before its perfect and usable by those who need it, but I for one can't wait to see it open and in use once again," he added.
