The Nave at St. Ethelburga's Centre is a fantastic multi-purpose space that can be used for dinners, meetings, conference spaces, workshops, talks as well as parties, concerts and music events.
The Nave provides a unique setting, a combination of the original church structure framed by modern glass and white walls. Its high ceilings, original arches, a stained glass window and fascinating history provide a wonderful atmosphere. Though fairly large, the space has a cozy feeling, suitable for smaller groups. Adjacent to the nave is the annex which is a perfect break out space, reception or refreshments area.
The space is equipped with a lectern, uplighters, flip charts and an upright piano. It benefits from fast WIFI, a Bose professional sound-system, an HD laser projector and wireless microphones.

Amazing space, really well equipped and in a great location. Loos and kitchen facilities were basic but clean. It was perfect for our day - a hen do for 34 including a yoga class and drinks. Helpful having a member of staff on site for any queries.
35 mins before the end of our booking, the member of staff asked us to turn off the music and clear up, which we were just about to do. We didn’t mind being asked but his manner could have been more polite as it upset a few people and we were a considerate group who had to leave on time anyway!
Great and helpful staff and a stunning venue. We had a hugely positive response from our guests.
A real wow factor. Very helpful staff at the venue
Really great venue, Nick was very helpful.
