We are delighted to invite members and guests to an afternoon tour of Highbury Hall, the former home of Joseph Chamberlain. Built in 1878 in the Venetian Gothic style, to the designs of J. H. Chamberlain, the house was both a private residence and a venue for political and civic gatherings. Following Chamberlain’s death, the Hall passed to the city and has since been used for a range of public purposes. Today, the Chamberlain Highbury Trust works to restore the building and its historic gardens, and preserve this unique piece of heritage for future generations.
We will begin with a guided tour of areas of the house normally closed to the public, offering a rare glimpse into its Victorian history. This will be followed by an overview of plans to restore the gardens and Highbury Park.
Our talk will be facilitated by Lucy Bailey-Wright, Activities Planner at the Chamberlain Highbury Trust. Since joining the Trust in 2019, she has been passionate about engaging the public with Highbury’s history and its future.
