Brunswick House

Brunswick House is a large Georgian mansion in Vauxhall, in the London borough of Lambeth. In the eighteenth-century Brunswick House (originally Belmont House) was a grand house that stood in five and half acres of parkland and was originally built with a coach house, offices, stables and three acres of gardens that reached down to its own a timber dock on the Thames, on lease from the Dean of Canterbury and frontage onto the Old Portsmouth Road. The vaulted cellar still gives an idea of its size.

Located in Vauxhall, in the Nine Elms quarter of London. The house is an emblem of bygone elegance among major glass, steel and concrete office blocks and riverside apartments. The house is just a short walk from Westminster, sitting on the south bank of the Thames. Its near neighbours include the MI6 offices and the newly built US Embassy.

Brunswick House contains a mixture of fine furniture, antiques, statues and stonework and decorative ornaments reclaimed by the London East End company LASSCO, which has dealt in reclamation and salvage since 1979, taking on Brunswick House in 2005.

These shops and yards are what provide the back drop for unique venue hire and dining experiences.
