Peckham’s Best-Kept Secret: A New Victorian Venue Rediscovered
We’re thrilled to announce an exceptional new venue now available through Love Locations—set right in the heart of Peckham, just steps from Peckham Rye Station and only minutes from central London.
Already, this distinctive space is attracting huge interest for wedding receptions, PR launches, private parties, and creative events. And it’s easy to see why.
Sam Clarke, owner and founder of Love Locations, shares her thoughts:
“After all my years of scouting, I know what a gem the Peckham Ticket Office is. It’s a rare find—a place that feels so historic and so London, yet with its raw edges, so contemporary. It’s exactly the kind of space that inspires people to create unforgettable events.”
A Victorian Ticket Hall with Real Character
This stunning venue is housed in a Grade II listed Victorian ticket office, designed by Charles Henry Driver in 1865, and later used as a billiard hall. Stripped back to its original bones, it’s now a heritage warehouse with original patina, full of historic charm and atmosphere.
Inside, you’ll find:
• Exposed vaulted ceilings
• Peeling plaster walls with rich texture
• Original ticket hall arches and intricate ironwork
• Wooden floors and distressed brickwork
• A grand piano and soaring proportions perfect for creative staging
The result is a venue that feels both timeless and contemporary—ideal for anyone seeking a truly distinctive backdrop for their event or production.
It has already played host to art exhibitions, installations, and live events, proving itself an adaptable creative canvas.
Perfect for Weddings, Parties & PR Events
Whether you’re planning a London wedding reception, a Christmas party, or a brand activation, this flexible venue can be tailored to your needs. Its cinematic quality and sense of occasion make it perfect for anyone wanting to create something unforgettable.
A Creative Hub in Peckham
Located in the heart of one of London’s most vibrant neighbourhoods, you’ll find yourself surrounded by an exciting mix of bars, restaurants, galleries, and artisan businesses. Landmark creative spaces like The Bussey Building are just around the corner, making this an ideal destination for clients who value culture, community, and creativity.
A Blank Canvas for Your Vision
The beauty of this venue lies in its versatility. Its distressed walls, textured plaster, and architectural details look incredible as they are—but it’s equally easy to transform for your personal event vision. From minimalist installations to elaborate set designs, the possibilities are endless.
A Grade II Listed Treasure
Originally built in 1865 as part of Peckham Rye Station’s grand commuter complex, the building has lived many lives—from waiting room to billiard hall, and now to one of South East London’s most atmospheric creative venues. It’s a rare surviving example of Charles Henry Driver’s railway architecture, beautifully blending Victorian craftsmanship with modern urban energy.
