LentaSpace The Foundry Annexe, Borough

The Foundry Annexe sits in a converted red-brick warehouse on Glasshill Street, run by LentaSpace, in a pocket of South London within reach of Southwark, Blackfriars and Waterloo. The building's industrial bones give the area an unpolished, workshop feel that sets it apart from the glassier offices further north across the river.

Inside, private offices, studios and workshop spaces sit alongside each other, which gives the building a mixed, creative energy rather than a single corporate tone. A reception service greets arrivals and keeps the day running smoothly, while meeting rooms and breakout spaces offer somewhere to gather away from the desk. The exposed brick and warehouse proportions carry through the upper floors, lending the whole place a slightly raw, workshop character even where the fit-out is clean and functional. It suits consultants, SMEs and creative teams equally well, whether in for a single meeting or settled in for the long term.

Southwark, Blackfriars and Waterloo stations are all within walking distance, giving access to the Jubilee, Circle, District and Northern lines as well as National Rail services. The surrounding streets of this part of South London hold a steady mix of cafes and independent lunch spots, with the South Bank's bars and restaurants a short stroll further north. This corner of London rewards a bit of exploring, with Borough Market and the riverside both close enough for an after-work wander.
