Lindley Hall in Elverton Street, Westminster, London is the older of the two Royal Horticultural Halls and is owned by RHS Enterprises Limited, which is part of the charity Royal Horticultural Society in central London.
[2][3] It was the monarch King Edward VII who had mooted the idea of the Royal Horticultural Society having a purpose-built exhibition hall for its shows.
Lindley Hall was designed by Edwin J Stebbs and was built in 1904 of red brick with stone dressings and banding, with Arts and Crafts features and Renaissance details.
His focus on achieving as much natural light as possible remains a key part of the character of the building, though complete blackout is also possible.
[4] On 22 July 1904, together with the Society's patron Queen Alexandra, King Edward VII officially declared the venue open.
