About this space

The Main space is the chapel-area in Asylum Chapel and its defining quality is preserved, unrestored Victorian fabric.

Design: The Main space presents high, narrow chapel proportions, a pitched timber roof and flaking plaster and exposed brick walls that reveal layered historic finishes and a muted palette.

Features: The space benefits from natural light and is wheelchair accessible. The layout is an open nave-style floor that can be adapted for seated or standing configurations. The room has lively acoustics suitable for amplified or acoustic performance and is frequently used for photography and film shoots.

Ideal for: Photographers and creative teams will find the space suitable for atmospheric, adaptable seated presentations or social receptions.

What sets it apart: The space forms part of a Grade II listed chapel and retains original wartime-surviving stained-glass windows.

What guests say: The space is atmospheric and photogenic, and the on-site team provides experienced coordination.

It’s a well maintained almost 200 years venue, large and full of light when it’s sunny. Quite area and very friendly and helpful stuff. Access to electricity and water on site.
