I know people who spent thousands, tens of thousands, hundred of thousands there.

Aye they've closed down and moved out, back to Brighton I think - they're now an online business.
Not sure if anyone has yet taken over the building, it's such an amazing space.

2 Neate shows a year? What happened then? Some other reason they had to move/close? When Neate was at his height all they had to do was to sell a couple of Neate originals and done, the lease is renewed. Now they would have to sell more like 200 just to keep the lights on and change for a packet of digestives and PG tips. |

Elms Lesters Painting Rooms, by rbk on Sept 25, 2018 21:16:26 GMT 1, As HRE said Elms went online because the Lease on the building ran out. They had a very long term lease at a great peppercorn price. However when it came to an end the cost of renewal was too much for them because the are etc and pricing had changed dramatically. They also were not really using the space economically.
Great shame they did not do more with it
