“At the heart of the capital’s culinary and creative scenes, Clerkenwell embodies all that’s best about life in London.” – The Sunday Times
An historic hub of innovation, Clerkenwell has long been place for those who think differently and a catalyst for change. Today, its character-filled streets are home to leading biomedical institutions, cutting-edge research centres, dynamic tech firms, creative studios, and thriving markets—all contributing to its unique energy.
Once the beating heart of London’s printing and watchmaking industries, Farringdon has evolved into a dynamic business and creative hub, a hotbed of talent and innovation.
Renowned for its thriving food and drink culture, as well as its historical significance, Farringdon is nestled between Barbican, Clerkenwell, Holborn and The City. Farringdon has been called “Shoreditch for grown-ups” due to its vibrant-but-polished atmosphere that is particularly popular with professionals. Its mature and sophisticated character makes this a great location for flourishing companies.
King’s Cross is a vibrant and rapidly evolving district in central London, known for its rich history and contemporary redevelopment. Historically, it played a key role as an industrial and transport hub and is believed to be the site of Queen Boudicca’s legendary battle against the Romans. Once a neglected area with a run-down reputation, it has undergone significant regeneration, transforming into a thriving cultural, business, and residential neighbourhood.
Bloomsbury is a historic district renowned for its academic and cultural heritage. Home to world-class universities, museums, and garden squares, it remains a hub of intellectual and literary excellence. The area houses Bloomsbury Publishing, the British Library, and the British Museum, alongside leading research institutions and influential publishing houses, blending historic charm with modern creativity.
Known for its long standing connection to the British justice system, Holborn is home to the Royal Courts of Justice, Lincoln’s Inn and Gray’s Inn – two of England’s four Inns of Court. Steeped in history, and hosting a number of leading academic institutions, Holborn has evolved into a vibrant working district, appealing to businesses and creatives alike who are drawn by its mix of old-world charm and large green spaces.
