Block Management Clerkenwell
As a specialist Block Management Company we are operating in Clerkenwell.
History of Clerkenwell
Clerkenwell took its name from the Clerks' Well in Farringdon Lane, with the name being referenced as far back as 1100. It was here where the London Parish Clerks would perform annual mystery plays based upon biblical themes. Part of this historic well remains visible, as it has been combined into a 1980s building called Well Court.
New developments in Clerkenwell
City Approach Penthouses
The development had the aim to create a roof addition on an existing Edwardian building, with the result being four rooftop apartments with private terraces and conservatories. The development itself is situated in an ideal location with a close proximity to the City of London, while being moments from Old Street Station for links around the city.
Postmark
The development will be built on the site of a flagship London sorting office, and it will now be home to a new collection of apartments, tranquil open spaces and an array of complementary shops and restaurants. The first phase of development will build 151 stylish studio, one, two and three-bedroom apartments presented in over 60 styles.
