About our Kings Cross home
York Way runs through one of London's most transformed neighbourhoods. Granary Square, Coal Drops Yard, and the Regent's Canal sit to the south. The British Library is on Euston Road. Google's UK headquarters is at Pancras Square. Central St. Martins and Kings Place, home to The Guardian, are both on or just off York Way. The area stretches north through Barnsbury into N7, serving residents and businesses across Islington, Camden, Holloway, Kentish Town, and Angel.
HOLD has been at this address since March 2024, taking over a facility that served the Kings Cross community for 16 years. The building has been fully refurbished since the handover. HOLD was founded by Frederick de Ryckman de Betz, who's worked in self storage since 2006 and served as Chair of the Self Storage Association UK. Every unit at HOLD Kings Cross is operated to SSA UK standards.
