The town of Bishop's Stortford took its origin from, and has grown up around, the ford over the river, which is now known as the Stort. Archaeological evidence shows that the Romans had several roads across the area, at least one of which crossed the river in the vicinity of what are now known as the Town Meads.

Rhodes is a thriving, lively venue in the heart of Bishop’s Stortford which provides a year round varied programme of events including in-house, professional and local theatre, dance productions, live music, comedy, exhibitions, educational workshops and lectures.

The venue has a full size cinema screen and shows a selection of the latest b­lockbuster films and Oscar winners and also hosts free music events and quizzes in the Theatre Lounge on a regular basis.

Rhodes has rooms available to hire for exhibitions, conferences, meetings and celebrations.  This includes a state of the art auditorium, two dance studios, three meeting rooms and the theatre lounge which are all available to hire. 

Rhodes is open Monday to Saturday 9am - 5pm and until 10pm on performance days.
