Blackheath Concert Hall

Blackheath Concert Hall is a purpose-built concert hall constructed in 1894 by Edmeston and Gabriel in the Queen Anne style. It is made of Leicester brick, featuring some dressings and window mullions in terra-cotta, along with low-relief stucco decorative treatment in 'gesso duro' by Gilbert Seale of Walworth. The roof is covered with Westmoreland slate.

The building has a front block that faces the road, which contains administrative and social rooms, as well as a small hall on the first floor. At a right angle to this block, but not centered, is the wing that houses the main hall, with its gable rising above the roof of the Lee Road block. The front facade is two stories high with seven windows. The ends of the building have gables topped with ball finials and strapwork decoration that includes masks and musical instruments. There are lowered double arched attic openings, and the first floor features round-headed windows with triple casements and stained glass above. A frieze between the floors depicts tritons playing musical instruments, while the ground floor has triple mullioned and transomed windows.

On the right side, there is an open pedimented doorcase supported by large brackets, featuring a female mask in the pediment and an elaborate tented cast iron canopy on two cast iron columns. The entrance hall includes some stained glass panels. Inside the concert hall, there are nine bays with an elaborate wooden ribbed ceiling, round-headed windows divided by pilasters, and a proscenium arch with an open pediment, a shield, and a panel depicting musical instruments flanked by console brackets.

This concert hall is believed to be the earliest surviving purpose-built concert hall in London.
