Where is Clerkenwell?

Clerkenwell is just about as central a location as it is possible to find. The area is directly adjacent to the City of London, to the northwest of the financial district. For instance, the Bank of England is just one mile from the heart of Clerkenwell. Clerkenwell is also in the Borough of Islington as opposed to the City itself.

The population of Clerkenwell is approximately 13,500, and many of the local population live in apartments in converted warehouses. The local population is significantly younger than the national average.

There are several Underground and Overground stations in the area, with connections to most areas across the heart of London, and mainline stations Euston, King’s Cross and St Pancras are all within two miles of Clerkenwell.

Business & Economy in Clerkenwell

It is claimed that Clerkenwell has more creative businesses and architects per square mile than anywhere else in the world. This is celebrated every year during Clerkenwell Design Week – a series of showroom events, exhibitions, and special installations.

It might be a cliché, but this area really is young and hip! The average age of a Clerkenwell resident is several years lower than in the UK as a whole; and noticeably lower than the London median average as well. The area is on the edge of London’s student heartland.

Moreover, unemployment in Clerkenwell is lower than in Islington collectively and lower than the rate for the entirety of London. With that in mind, the area is set to become a much more attractive business location with the arrival of the Elizabeth line (formerly called Crossrail). Farringdon station in Clerkenwell will be one of the stops on this line. This will, for the first time, deliver a direct connection between all of London’s main employment centres, including Heathrow, Paddington, the West End, the City and Canary Wharf.

Business support organisations in the area include;

  • BNI Clerkenwell – which hosts guest speakers and allows members to network and gain referrals.
  • Islington Chamber of Commerce – which organises regular networking events, workshops, seminars, and educational programmes.

Things to do in Clerkenwell

Clerkenwell is home to two fantastic markets. Exmouth Market is a large food market, and several cafes can be found in and around the market. Leather Lane Market sells food and clothing every weekday.

The area is home to some lovely old pubs, such as Lenin’s former haunt of The Crown. Many other drinking establishments enjoy Grade II Listed status, including the Jerusalem, the Betsey Trotwood, the Peasant, and the Rosebery. Ask For Janice is a bar with a massive selection of gins, alongside a menu of sharing plates, while The Green is a well-regarded gastropub. Foodies can also head to Anglo for British fine dining, or Coach for authentic French fare.

Some of London’s most peaceful spots can be found in the areas surrounding the Inns of Court, and in Clerkenwell, you will find one of these - Gray’s Inn Fields. The area is also home to several magnificent Georgian squares, including Claremont and Myddelton. Charterhouse Square does not have much Georgian architecture, but look out for Florin Court, the apartment block used in the ITV series Poirot.

It might be off the main tourist trail, but the Old Postal Museum is well worth a visit. You can see interactive exhibits, sculptures, and rare stamps, and even take a ride on the underground railway that was specifically designed for the postal industry. You can also discover more about Charles Dickens and his life and books at the museum dedicated to the author.

There is plenty to do here, and that is why we recommend a long stay serviced apartment in Clerkenwell, to make sure you do not miss out on anything this lively London area has to offer.
