The Boardroom

The Boardroom has been the meeting place for the Institute’s trustees since the end of the 19th century. Located at the top of a sweeping staircase, the Boardroom contains many original features, including wooden panels, high ceilings, and an ornate fireplace.

Perfect for meetings requiring a sense of occasion, over the years the Boardroom has housed networking events and corporate away days, and has even been used as a filming location.
