A pocket of history tucked away amongst the contemporary architecture of Farringdon, London

The Charterhouse in Central London is an almshouse and heritage site with a fascinating history that offers a unique range of rooms, indoor and outdoor spaces for events. Hidden behind high walls, it has previously been a medieval monastery and a Tudor mansion where influential owners entertained prestigious guests. Today as a contemporary charity, its historic rooms, cloisters and courtyard gardens are the backdrop for truly memorable events and celebrations.
