Mary Ward House
Mary Ward House is a fascinating Grade 1 listed building built in 1898 and financed by the wealthy philanthropist Passmore Edwards. Mary Ward, the novelist and social reformer, was the inspiration behind the endeavour to provide a centre of training, care and entertainment for the less fortunate in society.
Set over three floors, there are multiple rooms suitable for all types of events. The largest room which is the Mary Ward Hall, is situated on the first floor and has a capacity of up to 350 seated and 500 standing so is perfect for large confererences, exhibitions, AGMs and exams. On the lower ground floor, you will find Brewer & Smith conference and exhibition hall which can accommodate up to 237 seated and 300 standing. These large spaces are complemented by numerous smaller rooms, offering a space for any type of event and all of the rooms have natural daylight.
Outside there is a lovely courtyard garden for your delegates to enjoy either during a break or for after-event drinks.
