New Cross House in New Cross (not far from uni or Chapter).

Marquis of Granby, next to Goldsmiths.
What’s the best thing about living at Chapter?
The best thing about living at Chapter is how it gives you the opportunity to interact and connect with people you would never have thought you could connect with. Also the professionalism and organisation skills of the staff at reception and the effort they put into organising events is quite noteworthy.
