The venue is approximately 5-10 mins walk from the train station. Exit via the gates at the back (not towards carpark/ticket office). Cross at the Pedestrian crossing and turn left walking towards the A40. Take the next right onto Libertus Road. After around 300m turn left onto Church Road and the venue is half way up on the right, behind the Church.
ACCESS INFORMATION: The entrance is over slightly stony/grassy ground but the route into the building is step free. We are in the main hall which is on the right once you come into the entrance hall. If you experience any difficulty accessing the space please call us on 07442 491002 and we will come to assist you. The venue has an accessible toilet and parking for blue badge holders on the road immediately outside the grounds.
