Cell Block Studios
Coworking and office space
Each private office in Cell Block Studios has been converted from Grade-1 listed, Victorian Naval Prison cells. The cells are furnished with stylish desks, chairs, shelves and WiFi. You can hire a full desk and share the space with another business, hire the entire cell as your office, or hot desk and work from any of the communal areas in the building, such as the break out spaces and meeting rooms.
You can also book meeting rooms and use break out spaces when you want a break from your office. The communal front of house area is available for you to meet visitors and is ideal for informal meetings.

Having our business based at Cell Block Studios is absolutely amazing for us. Not only is it a phenomenally cool space for a small business like ours, being right inside the awesome historic dockyard really gives it an edge and the wow factor. Not only that, but the small community of other businesses that also have offices there, creates a really great vibe that’s just awesome to be a part of.
