With its sheer scale, Italian marble panelled walls, Matcham style balcony and fully sprung maple floor, it epitomises the Victorian grandeur and ‘faded glory’ of the whole building. Furthermore, as a dry hire space the Assembly Hall is surprisingly flexible, and for a more contemporary feel panels and cladding can easily be added to create a slick, modern blank canvas.
