Wappenham's last pub closed in 1970 and the Village Shop/Post Office closed in November 2010. It was no longer financially viable. Villagers were sad to see it go and are now looking at alternatives.

The Village Hall and Silver Lake are the only two amenities in the village.

Thanks to the hard work of its committee who managed to secure funding, the village hall has been refurbished. It has wheelchair access and 3 new toilets of which one if for wheelchair users. The main hall has been redecorated and it is really a great venue. The cost per hour is very affordable. To find out more just follow the link on the left.

There is also a playground, more information regarding the playground will be posted at a later date.

Silver Lake - Built as a farm reservoir well over a decade ago, it has since been stocked and matured as a fishery and now holds a superb head of carp, roach, bream and some crucians too. The lake is some 3.5 acres, depths vary from 3 feet to 15 or so. There are some 20 comfortable pegs, a mown path all round and a road side car park just 50 yards walk from the water.
