Built in 1719, Hanbury Hall has a rich and eclectic history. Originally a French Huguenot church, it has been utilized through the ages for many noteworthy events such as public readings by Charles Dickens and the meeting place for the 1888 Match girls strike. Magnificently renovated into a diverse venue space; it boasts high ceilings and windows to bathe the room in natural daylight, a versatile mezzanine which can be used as gallery space or for pre-dinner drinks and full projector and AV facilities for conferences. A recent restoration and makeover has seamlessly combined the contemporary Spitalfields style with the heart of a national heritage building.
