The meeting house is located in the heart of Wandsworth, with direct access onto the High Street, alongside South Thames College and opposite the Wandsworth Council offices. With its quiet simple rooms and lovely green garden at the rear, it is also an oasis of peace in a very busy neighbourhood. All these factors make it an ideal place for the many groups who use it throughout the week and on Saturdays.
The meeting house consists of the meeting room, the library and the classroom. There is also a peaceful walled burial ground and garden to the rear. There are four toilets, including one with disabled access, and a food preparation area. Please note the meeting house is closed on bank holidays.
