About Lapworth Room
8 Boardroom
The Lapworth Room brings together Birmingham's academic heritage with the practical needs of modern business meetings. This boardroom occupies part of Garth House, a Grade II-listed building from 1900 designed by architect William Bidlake, where original Arts and Crafts features create a distinctive backdrop for your discussions. Six delegates can gather comfortably around the solid wooden table, surrounded by carefully selected specimens and artwork from the Lapworth Museum of Geology. These framed fossil and mineral illustrations aren't just decoration, they reflect the scholarly atmosphere that makes this space particularly suited to strategic planning sessions and executive meetings where focus matters. Natural light streams through the large window during daytime meetings, while the traditional log fireplace and character lighting create a warm ambience for evening sessions. The rich burgundy upholstered chairs encourage participants to settle in for thorough discussions, whether you're conducting interviews, hosting board meetings, or running small training workshops. We've equipped the room with ultra-fast Wi-Fi and tea and coffee facilities, so you have everything needed for productive sessions. The peaceful setting within our venue's grounds helps teams concentrate without city distractions, yet you're just two miles from Birmingham centre. University railway station sits within walking distance, and we provide free parking for those driving. The 1900 Restaurant can arrange working lunches using ethically sourced British ingredients, delivered directly to your meeting room or served in the restaurant itself. Post-meeting, the 1900 Bar provides a relaxed environment for continuing conversations. For multi-day sessions, our 185 contemporary bedrooms mean delegates can stay on-site, with complimentary access to the University's Sport & Fitness centre. This distinctive boardroom suits organisations seeking something beyond standard corporate spaces, where historical character enhances rather than distracts from the business at hand.
