Originally built in the 1800s, Stratford Workshops used to be the printing works for Great Eastern Railways and most of the GER's printing requirements - posters, timetables, ticketing - were handled here.
When the works were closed in the 60s, the building was converted into East London's very first start up building.
With over 105 units, Stratford Workshops is already home to a vibrant and diverse mix of creative occupiers. From fashion designers to jewellery makers, digital printers to embroidery creators; the atmosphere here is dynamic and inspiring.
