Did you know? The Durham Street Auditorium is built on one of the last stretches of 18th century cobbled roadway in London

January 2024

The Durham Street Auditorium at RSA House was built on the last remaining stretch of 18th century cobbled Victorian roadway, which was part of a tunnel beneath the House leading down to the Thames.

In the mid-19th century horses were used to drag coal wagons up this steep passage to the Strand and some vaults in RSA House were used as stables.

These industrial feeling exposed brick vaults are original to the townhouse, and featured as wharf’s, storage facilities, wine cellars, and even accommodate for cattle over the years, now they are the perfect party or exhibition venue with plenty of options to personalise!
