About this space

The Yard is an Event Space in Westminster School Enterprise: an open-air, paved courtyard enclosed by multi-storey brick buildings with a prominent stone tower rising beyond.

Design: The Yard presents formal, institutional proportions across broad stone paving and minimal planting. The courtyard receives direct daylight from the open sky and has a regular, rectangular layout that functions as a single, flexible hard-surfaced space.

Features: The Yard includes a PA system and speakers, on-site Wi‑Fi and the option to play your own music or bring a DJ subject to a noise restriction. The space provides a defined area suitable for dancing, step-free guest access, wheelchair access and accessible toilets. Air conditioning is available on site.

Ideal for: Social groups seeking a relaxed standing reception or an informal seated gathering in an outdoor, hard-surfaced courtyard.
