Clerkenwell
Clerkenwell Office Space: Area Overview
Office space in Clerkenwell sits immediately north west of the City, between Farringdon and the Angel, in the EC1 postcode. It is now the centre of British design and architecture, with a concentration of practices and showrooms found nowhere else in the country. The stock is converted workshops, warehouses and industrial buildings, left over from the watchmaking and printing trades and unusually well lit as a result.

Clerkenwell Offices: Things To Do and See
Clerkenwell eats well and knows it, which is a large part of why teams take offices to rent here and then stay. Exmouth Market and Leather Lane cover lunch, and the restaurants along St John Street have reputations that pull people in from outside the area. Hatton Garden is a short walk for anyone in the market for jewellery. The design showrooms are open to visitors for much of the year, and during Clerkenwell Design Week in May the whole area turns into an exhibition. Clerkenwell Green and the churchyards give somewhere to sit outside.
Serviced Office Space to Rent in Clerkenwell
Serviced offices in Clerkenwell occupy characterful period stock, which is exactly what the area's occupier base wants. Design practices, architects, creative agencies and media businesses dominate, with professional firms taking the better refurbished buildings. Floor plates tend to be modest and irregular, so larger requirements are harder to satisfy here than in the City next door. Rents sit below the City core while offering considerably more character. The London Museum opens in the restored Smithfield General Market on 28 November 2026, which will change the southern edge of the area again.
