Hatton Gardens

Hatton Gardens is Europe's largest and oldest diamond jewellery district with several hundred goldsmiths working within Hatton Gardens itself and the surrounding area.

Cool Diamonds is located at 16, Greville Street which is the heart of Hatton Gardens district and has been situated in the area since its inception in 1999.

Hatton Gardens is located 100m from Farringdon tube station in London, EC1.

Hatton Gardens was once part of the gardens of the bishop of Ely and was awarded to Sir Christopher Hatton by Queen Elizabeth I in 1581.

The streets around Hatton Gardens have been a hub of the jewellery trade for over 500 years. The first Goldsmiths Hall was opened in 1339 half a mile east of the present Hatton Gardens.

Medieval London had quarters dedicated to different trades and to this day Hatton Gardens is still protected by Camden as a specialist jewellery quarter. Most properties can only be used for the jewellery or diamond trade.
