The Main Hall & Balconies
This spacious meeting room has a capacity of about 300: up to 132 on the floor (theatre style) plus 172 across the two balconies. Although the interior of the Main Hall was fully redesigned and refurbished in 1961, windows in the ceiling allow glimpses of the original 19th century beamed roof. The acoustics are excellent.
The fixed theatre seating balconies overlook the Main Hall floor and make a great spectator space. The capacity to have alternative seating arrangements on the floor offers flexibility for events. There is a small pull-out stage that can be used as a podium for a panel of speakers.
The Main Hall works really well for conferences, training events, large briefings, large seminars and mock trials.
The room has an in-built loop system (free of charge).
Equipment is available for hire, including data projector (with large screen), PA system and microphones. A wired internet connection is available to ensure excellent connectivity for hybrid events.
