Cookies are small files a website stores on your device. Shire Venues uses as few as possible.

These are strictly necessary, so they don’t need your consent. If we add analytics or advertising cookies in future, we’ll ask for your consent first and list them here.
Other services
Our pages load fonts from Google Fonts. This sends your IP address to Google but doesn’t set cookies.
Controlling cookies
