Date: 19th September, 10am-5pm.
We're excited to once again be part of the Open House festival, inviting visitors to explore our unique, historic Meeting House and its surroundings - alongside a wide range of other buildings across London. First-time or returning visitors alike, please feel free to drop in and explore the grounds, learn a little more about the building and its history, and enjoy the peace of an original 18th century Meeting House.
We'll be offering both opportunities for self-guided exploration (with displays, activities, and more), as well as a variety of events from local creatives. Visitors of all ages very welcome!
Our full programme is to be confirmed, and will be continually updated below. For more details, including the full festival listings, and to book in for any ticketed events (you do not need to book to drop in and visit), please see Open House's website.
Facility notes: there are toilets onsite, including an accessible toilet with baby changing facilities. Level access to all ground-floor rooms, though the grounds can be uneven. Please see our find us page for parking and travel details.
