About this space

A historic Anglican chapel repurposed as an event venue, defined by its soaring vaulted ceiling and calm, pale interiors.

Design: The interior shows classical detailing and a patterned tiled floor beneath tall arched windows, with simple cornicing that keeps the space restrained and formal.

Features: The venue provides Wi‑Fi and a PA system with fixed speakers. The venue allows external music and DJs but enforces a noise restriction; the main floor can be cleared to create a dancefloor. The venue is wheelchair accessible.

Ideal for: Intimate groups seeking a formal seated dinner that can transition into a standing reception with a dance area.
