Built in 1909, the venue blends original features"such as its iconic red brick frontage, soaring chimney, arched windows, and glass ceiling"with modern, flexible event spaces. Couples can exchange vows in a licensed ceremony room with forest views before celebrating in the double-height Engine Hall.
