Cleaves Hall

Cleaves Hall is a beautiful old building in the middle of the centre. It is three stories high. Right next to it is a church and left next to it a bookshop, all related to each other. The bookstore therefore sells religious books and other religious items.




The rooms are very small. I don’t mind that too much. There is room enough to put all my stuff away so I’m happy with it. I bought some little things to personalise it to make it feel a bit homier. A poster on the wall and some lights that change colour. My room is situated at the topfloor.

When I get out of the building and look to the right, I can already see the shops of the city centre.

During our stay here the 'livingroom' is a good place to get together and have some drinks or watch television. Sometimes a movie night is organised by one of the students, using a laptop and DVD to play a movie on the tv.

Next to the student residence is a church that also belongs to the Congregational Federation. Keith, the care keeper let us in one Saterdaymorning. Nowadays there is a floor made between the balcony's and the churchpart is now upstairs. There is even a painting of 'Willem van Oranje' present. Because of the floor that was build later, the pipe-organ looks oddly. You can see the pipes but the seat of the organist is lower.

Marcel and Diana came over for a visit. Saterday evening we had a little party in the kitchen of Cleaves Hall. We played different drinking games and had a lot of fun together with other students in this house. There are pictures too of course .........
