For the Common Good

The Common Room is a charity, archive and heritage venue. We are the custodians of Neville Hall, historically the home of the North of England Institute of Mining and Mechanical Engineers since 1872. Whether you are looking to support our charitable mission, explore our archives or host your next event here, we will assist you every step of the way.
