Newton Hall and the neighbouring Joiners Arms are looking for at least six and five new recruits respectively.

John Parker, general manager at Newton Hall, said: “We thought it would be a great idea to let prospective employees come and have a look at the venue and meet some of the team members who actually do the job.

“The hall is a truly stunning place and I am privileged to work with such an amazing bunch of people delivering the highest quality weddings.
