About Porters Civic House and Mayor’s Parlour

A venue which offers so much potential to have a day to remember.

Step inside one of Southend’s hidden treasures – a delightful venue built in the 15th Century. The house, a delightful venue takes its name from le-Porters, a prominent family in South-East Essex who owned the estate from the 14th Century.

This venue is tucked away behind the walled grounds in the heart of Southend, set in delightful gardens gently sloping down to a lovely pond.

This venue will be exclusively for your celebration and if you wish you can have a marquee in the garden for your reception. It accommodates 50 people for a ceremony and buffet style reception or 32 for a sit down meal. We can also offer you canapés and bubbly as well as its own on-site free parking.
