About this space

Built in 1929, The Library at Conway Hall features a unique backdrop for filming and serves as an impressive space for a book launch or drinks reception, with stocked bookshelves and natural light.

Beautiful, authentic, classic backdrop for photo shoots and filming which has been used in various film and television productions.
Great space for book launch, symposiums, drinks/canapés receptions and more!

Please just note, as we are Grade 2 listed building, there is no lift facilities to the Library, which is situated on the 1st floor of our lovely venue.
