Anglican Chapel
Built in 1847 and designed by famous architect Joseph Paxton, the Anglican Chapel in London Road Cemetery is available for private an
The Anglican Chapel is Grade II listed and was built in 1847 of Hartshill stone in a Norman style. The Chapel has undergone extensive restoration and is now beautifully equipped with underfloor heating, bronze casement double glazing and all the facilities to accommodate a range of events, meetings and ceremonies.
The Chapel sits in the stunning location of London Road Cemetery, opened in 1847. In the mid-Victorian era, as city centre churchyards became overcrowded, carefully designed and landscaped cemeteries on the outskirts of cities became increasingly popular. As well as being natural environments often full of exotic trees and plants, many also displayed beautiful architecture designed by renowned architects of the day.
London Road Cemetery is no exception. It was designed by Sir Joseph Paxton, renowned architect, gardener and Member of Parliament for Coventry who notably worked extensively at in the gardens at Chatsworth House in Derbyshire and designed Crystal Palace in London.
Nowadays the Chapel is an Approved Premises for Marriages and Civil Partnerships.

Drapers' Hall
After more than 30 years shut, this impressive Regency hall in the heart of historic Coventry has been repurposed and reinvigorated as a venue for marriages.
The Grade II* listed Drapers’ Hall is one of the few Regency buildings in the city and was built in 1831-2 as the headquarters of the Coventry Drapers’ Guild.
The current building is the third Drapers’ Hall on the site, replacing the previous medieval and post-medieval buildings which the wealthy Guild of Drapers constructed as places to do business, to socialise and to hold events.
Designed by Thomas Rickman and H W Hutchinson, the current building is in Greek Revival style and consists of a series of grand ceremonial spaces lit by rooflights: a Ballroom, Tea Room and Reading Room. Each of these has decorative plaster ceilings and chimneypieces. In the basement the original kitchens, plate store, wine store and sculleries survive with all their fittings. Parts of the basement were also used as air raid shelters in both World Wars.
