About us

Building The Box was a huge task.

Meet our guide at our Welcome Desk and then take an architectural tour of our site, during which you'll learn about the restoration, demolition and new build construction that took place between 2017 and 2020.

You’ll also discover some fascinating information about the history of our buildings, dating back to the 1860s. External pulpits, Blitz bomb damage, redundant tram lines, and more!

Please note: this tour involves walking up and down stairs.
