Southwark Cathedral

Conference Facilities

Next to London Bridge and at the heart of regenerated Bankside, the rooms offer unrestricted views of the Thames and the City - yet they are perfect for quiet, concentrated reflection and strategic planning.
 

London Bridge Station is just a few minutes away - but your conference and seminar will take place in what seems like another world amidst light oak and polished Portland stone and an energising sense of openness.
