What's On
Longfield Hall exists to meet the changing needs of our local community Myatt’s Fields, Camberwell SE5. The Minet family built the hall, which opened in 1889, as a place where the whole community could come together. Longfield Hall Trust is committed to implementing the family’s vision for this and succeeding generations.
The hall is Grade II listed and is run by Longfield Hall Trust, a group of local community volunteers.
