Description
182 Mare Street comprises a substantial former education campus, most recently in use by the University of the Arts London (UAL) as part of its London College of Fashion campus, having earlier served as the Cordwainers College.
The Property is arranged across three blocks. Blocks A and B are linked at ground floor level. Block A forms the main entrance of the property.
Block A is locally listed and retains a number of notable architectural features befitting its history as a Victorian education building built in 1877. It provides three floors and a basement providing former classrooms, workshops and communal spaces.
Block B is built over 3 floors of solid red brick under a flat roof with single glazed Crittall windows. It has original cement flooring, with tiles and painted and plastered walls and was built circa 1960. The block was previously used as a combination of classrooms and office space.
Block C to the north area of the site is a former single storey stable block constructed of solid London Stock brick under a pitched slate roof. This was used as the canteen which benefits from double height ceilings and has a kitchen and toilets.
The property is provided with full vacant possession.
The Property was last used as a teaching space and courses that were taught here have now moved to UAL’s new consolidated Stratford Campus. The site is currently occupied by property guardians.

Flood Risk
Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
