Knights Park campus

Grange Road, Kingston upon Thames, Surrey, KT1 2QJ

Students based here study:

  • Architecture
  • Art and Design History
  • Design (all areas)
  • Fine Art

Knights Park has a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Home to Kingston's design students, it backs onto the Hogsmill river so students can enjoy riverside living:

  • the student restaurant and bar open on to the waterside
  • Middle Mill halls of residence is on the other bank
  • its small size and quiet location make the campus more intimate than the larger sites

Each subject has its own designated teaching areas, but the small campus size means there are plenty of opportunities to socialise.
