South Mill Arts

South Mill Arts is a venue for theatre, contemporary arts and culture, and conferences in Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire, England. An adjacent 19th-century building, today Bishop's Stortford Museum, was the birthplace of Cecil Rhodes and is a centre for local history.

In the 1960s new buildings were added behind the birthplace to form the Rhodes Memorial Museum and Commonwealth Centre. The complex was refurbished in 2005. It has a 300-seat theatre, a multi-purpose studio space, museum, an exhibition gallery for art and photography, and a café bar. It provides a programme of arts events and hosts professional touring productions, dance groups, musicians and comedians. Films are also shown in its tiered auditorium.
