Our Accommodation
The Metropolitan Benefits Society Asylum
100 Ballspond Road, London N1

The Metropolitan Benefits Society Asylum was founded in 1829 by John Christopher Bowles, however building did not begin until August 1936.

The scheme has a mixture of 28 flats and cottages designed around three sides of a quadrangle with a central Meeting Hall (which was rebuilt in 1931)  and a beautiful central garden to which residents add many pots of flowers outside their homes.

The scheme is close to local transport links and the bustling Kingsland High Street.

Extensive work has been done to fit new kitchens and begin the process of bringing the delightful flats up to modern day standards.

A full social programme takes place at this scheme with trips and outings regularly taking place.
